Nicollet Mall and Skyway Bridge, Downtown Minneapolis
Taken July 2021
Nicollet Mall runs about twelve blocks through downtown Minneapolis, from Washington Avenue to Grant Street. The city closed it to general traffic in 1967, turning it into a transit and pedestrian corridor reserved for buses, taxis, and bikes. A $50 million redesign by James Corner Field Operations reopened the street in 2017 with new lighting, seating, and a single traffic lane for buses. Enclosed skyways link many of the office towers and retail buildings along the route, letting people move between blocks without going outside.
