A large-scale mural depicting Prince dominates the side of a brick building, illuminated by a row of rooftop lights that emphasize both the portrait and the texture of the masonry beneath it. The artwork presents Prince with his iconic guitar, referencing his role not only as a performer but as a technically accomplished musician and songwriter whose work reshaped popular music beginning in the late 1970s. The saturated purples, golds, and layered background elements visually echo the imagery and symbolism long associated with his career, particularly the Purple Rain era that cemented his global influence.
Murals like this became an important part of Minneapolis’s visual landscape following Prince’s death in 2016, serving as public memorials that connect the city’s streets to its musical legacy. Painted directly onto brick, the piece blends fine-art portraiture with urban scale, designed to be read from a distance while still holding detail up close. Night lighting transforms the mural into a landmark after dark, reinforcing Prince’s enduring presence in the city where he was born, recorded, and built an independent creative empire that continues to influence artists across genres.

Amid the long-running Hennepin Avenue reconstruction, residents added a dose of humor and gratitude by dressing Halloween skeletons in reflective vests and hard hats, mounting them on a front-yard tree with “Thank You Construction Crews!” signs. This improvised display along the busy corridor captures both the extended disruption of the project and the community’s appreciation for the workers transforming one of Minneapolis’s key thoroughfares.
