Mississippi River Sunset from Boom Island, Minneapolis

Mississippi River sunset viewed from Boom Island Park in Minneapolis, with the I-94 bridge visible in the distance.
The Mississippi River flows past Boom Island Park in Minneapolis at sunset. The park, located on the river's west bank, is a popular destination for recreation and offers views of the water and the city's bridges. The bridge visible in the distance is part of I-94, a major interstate highway that crosses the Mississippi River in this area. Boom Island's history is tied to the river's industrial past, having been used for logging and milling operations before becoming a public park.
