July 2017 — Gold Run Park in Lead, South Dakota.

July 2017 — A long-forgotten mine entrance lies hidden in the forested slopes near the old gold mining town of Lead, South Dakota. The timber-framed portal, now partially collapsed and overtaken by vegetation, dates back to the late 19th or early 20th century—part of the Black Hills’ extensive network of small exploratory mines that sprang up after the 1876 gold rush. Streams like this one often run through or near these adits, carrying trace minerals that once drew prospectors to the region. Though many of these shafts were short-lived, they remain scattered reminders of South Dakota’s mining heritage and the rugged ambition that once fueled settlement in the Black Hills.

July 2017 — These towering concrete presidential busts sit hidden in the woods near Lead, South Dakota—remnants of a once-ambitious roadside attraction called Presidents Park. Conceived by Texas artist David Adickes and opened in 2003, the park showcased forty-three sculptures, each roughly 20 feet tall, depicting every U.S. president from Washington through George W. Bush. The attraction struggled to draw visitors and closed by 2010, leaving the massive heads stranded in the forest. Over time, nature reclaimed the site, with fallen branches, moss, and pine needles collecting around the statues. Today, the figures stand as haunting relics of early-2000s Americana tourism and the impermanence of grand civic art in private hands.

May 2017 — Built in the late 19th century, this rail tunnel sits near Bridal Veil Creek between Minneapolis and St. Paul and was constructed to accommodate expanding freight and passenger service for the Great Northern and Northern Pacific rail systems. Its heavy stone block walls and reinforced concrete beams reflect early railroad engineering adapted to the region’s steep ravines and waterways. The tunnel once served as a vital connector between Minneapolis rail yards and the Midway district, supporting grain, timber, and industrial shipments. Though still active today, it carries far lighter traffic and has become known for its weathered masonry, natural overgrowth, and layers of graffiti, showing where urban infrastructure meets forgotten industrial corridors.

May 2017 — Once part of the historic rail convergence near Westminster Junction in St. Paul, this corridor reflects the city’s long-standing role as a freight and passenger gateway for the Upper Midwest. The junction has served multiple carriers over the decades, supporting connections to Chicago, Minneapolis, and broader national rail networks. The single-track line in the foreground sits alongside a broader multi-track right-of-way, characteristic of the region’s use for heavy rail traffic, including grain, intermodal, and freight hauling. Dense summer vegetation lines the route, showing how rail corridors often double as preserved green space, even amid active infrastructure. The distant bridge marks the approach toward downtown St. Paul, where several major rail yards historically managed traffic between river, road, and rail transport.

July 2015 — U.S. Bank Stadium, home of the Minnesota Vikings, began construction in December 2013 on the site of the former Hubert H. Humphrey Metrodome in downtown Minneapolis. The stadium’s steel skeleton, seen here during its mid-construction phase, showcases the dramatic angular geometry that defines its final form — a nod to both Nordic shipbuilding and Minnesota’s icy winter landscapes. The project, designed by HKS Architects and constructed by Mortenson, features over 19,000 tons of structural steel and spans 1.75 million square feet. Its transparent ETFE roof panels and vast steel trusses were among the most complex structural assemblies ever attempted in a U.S. stadium build. Completed in 2016, the $1.1 billion stadium remains one of the most technically ambitious indoor venues in North America, notable for its fixed-roof design, massive glass curtain walls, and precision-engineered support cranes like the red lattice boom seen here — used to hoist the roof trusses into place during overnight construction sessions.
