Graffiti-Covered Target, East Lake Street, Minneapolis

The Target retail store on East Lake Street in South Minneapolis displays extensive graffiti across its lower facade. This graffiti, including prominent references to George Floyd, reflects the widespread protests and unrest that occurred during the Minneapolis Uprising of 2020. The store's location across from the Minneapolis Police 3rd Precinct placed it at the center of significant historical events. Despite the visible markings, the building continues to function as a retail establishment serving the community. A person rests on the grass adjacent to the building.
