Lake Street Shops Reopen After Unrest, Minneapolis

Shops Are Open sign on Lake Street February 2021
Shops on Lake Street in Minneapolis are shown reopening after significant damage sustained during civil unrest in the summer of 2020. The unrest followed the murder of George Floyd on May 25, 2020, and led to widespread protests and property destruction across the city. This sign indicates that Dollar Tree, Variety Beauty Supply, and Sprint are operational, signifying a step towards recovery for the commercial corridor. The graffiti visible on the Sprint sign, reading "Fuck 12," reflects the anti-police sentiment prevalent during the protests.
