Minneapolis Firefighters at Former K-Mart Building

Minneapolis firefighters work to extinguish a blaze at the former K-Mart building on Lake Street on October 20, 2023. The building had previously served as a temporary post office location from November 2020 until late summer 2023, following arson attacks on two South Minneapolis post offices in May 2020. The structure's history includes its time as a K-Mart retail store, and its more recent use highlights the ongoing impact of the 2020 civil unrest on the city's infrastructure.
