Hennepin County Medical Center, located at 717 South 7th Street in Minneapolis, Minnesota, had its windows boarded up during the trial of Derek Chauvin in April 2021. The hospital, a major public health facility serving the Twin Cities, was secured as a precautionary measure amidst concerns of potential unrest following the verdict in the murder trial of George Floyd. The plywood coverings served to protect the building's facade from damage during a period of heightened public tension and protests.
