St. Paul Subway & Tax Office Fire Damage
Taken July 2020
The remains of a former Subway restaurant and a tax office are visible on University Avenue West in St. Paul. These structures were destroyed by fire during the civil unrest that followed the May 25, 2020 murder of George Floyd in Minneapolis. The debris, contained by an orange construction fence, marks a site of significant damage in the aftermath of the protests. The destruction of these commercial properties reflects the widespread impact of the protests on local businesses and urban environments in the Twin Cities.
