Burned Lake Street Station Post Office, Minneapolis

Burned Lake Street Station post office facade in Minneapolis, with charred brick and partial Minneapolis lettering.
The fire-damaged Lake Street Station post office in Minneapolis fills the frame, with soot-stained brickwork and the partially intact “MINNEAPOLIS” lettering visible on the facade. This United States Postal Service building on the Lake Street corridor was burned during the unrest that followed the murder of George Floyd in May 2020. The image focuses on the extent of the damage to a public facility that handled mail service in one of the city’s major commercial corridors.
