SuperValu Chairs, W. Lake Street, South Minneapolis

A row of assorted chairs lines the sidewalk outside the former SuperValu grocery store on West Lake Street in South Minneapolis. This commercial building, like many others along the corridor, was significantly impacted during the civil unrest in May 2020. The presence of these chairs suggests a temporary community gathering point or a memorial space in the aftermath of the events. Lake Street, a vital artery for commerce and community life in South Minneapolis, has been a focal point for rebuilding and remembrance efforts.
