Burned Wells Fargo Vault, Minneapolis

Inside the burned Wells Fargo Bank in Minneapolis
The interior of a Wells Fargo bank on Nicollet Avenue in Minneapolis, showing the aftermath of damage sustained during the Minneapolis Uprising on May 29, 2020. Despite the extensive fire damage throughout the building, the bank's vault, designed for secure storage, remained intact. The presence of undamaged safe deposit boxes within the vault necessitated the site's prolonged security for several months following the unrest. This image documents the impact of the events on urban infrastructure and the measures taken to protect financial assets.
