A beautiful mid January sunset behind Target Field Station in the North Loop Minneapolis.

Target Field Station in Minneapolis during a winter sunrise, viewed across the railyard as snowplow trucks clear nearby roadways. Opened in 2014, the station serves as the western terminus for METRO Blue and Green Line light-rail service and functions as a multimodal hub for events at Target Field and the surrounding North Loop district. Its distinctive steel canopy and track arrangement were designed to accommodate both current transit operations and future extensions, reflecting the region’s long-term rail planning strategy. The elevated vantage also highlights the mix of transit, freight infrastructure, and redevelopment that continues to reshape this former warehouse district.

Target Field Station, Minneapolis

Target Field Station in Downtown Minneapolis at 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.
