The Minneapolis skyline at night features the IDS Center, completed in 1972 as the city's first skyscraper, and the Capella Tower, finished in 1992 as the second tallest building. These structures, along with others like the Wells Fargo Tower, form the commercial core of Minneapolis.

Photo taken in October 2012.
