Burned Dollar General & HR Block, Hi-Lake Shopping Center

Burned out strip mall stores
The Hi-Lake Shopping Center on East Lake Street in South Minneapolis shows extensive fire damage. In the foreground are the charred remains of an HR Block store, while a Dollar General store in the background exhibits significant structural damage and boarded windows. This commercial property sustained widespread destruction in May 2020, following the murder of George Floyd. The damage to businesses along Lake Street became a notable aspect of the protests and civil unrest that impacted the city, affecting local services and the community.
