The illuminated Target Field sign overlooks the Warehouse District in downtown Minneapolis, where the city’s historic brick warehouses meet modern transit and redevelopment. Below, the Metro Green and Blue Line trains stop at Target Field Station, a multimodal hub linking light rail, commuter rail, and bike paths. The brightly lit Ford Center and preserved brick structures along 5th Street North illustrate the district’s mix of 20th-century industrial architecture and contemporary urban life, framed against the cold clarity of a Minnesota winter night.

Opened in 2014, Target Field Station is a multimodal transit hub serving the METRO Blue and Green light rail lines, Northstar commuter rail, and several Metro Transit bus routes. It sits adjacent to Target Field, home of the Minnesota Twins, and doubles as a public gathering space with an amphitheater, green plaza, and year-round programming.

In this night view, the glowing red canopy and bold “Target Field Station” signage stand out against the dark sky, framed between the historic Ford Center (left, built in 1912 as an assembly plant) and a modern office building (right). A freeway bridge cuts through the foreground, symbolizing the layered infrastructure of the city.

This mix of historic brickwork, modern transit, and illuminated signage captures Minneapolis’s ongoing balance of industrial heritage and urban redevelopment.
