Target Center and Ramp A Skyway, Downtown Minneapolis

The Target Center’s neon Bullseye dog glows above 1st Avenue North, marking one of Minneapolis’ most recognizable downtown landmarks. Opened in 1990 and renovated in 2017 with a modern metal facade, the arena is home to the Minnesota Timberwolves and a hub for concerts and civic events. In the foreground, the enclosed skyway leads to Ramp A — part of the city’s expansive elevated walkway network that connects much of downtown. Snow-lined streets and the layered lighting of the ramps emphasize Minneapolis’ engineered adaptation to both density and winter.
