The Midtown Greenway in Minneapolis is a 5.5-mile paved multi-use trail that runs through the heart of the city. Originally a railroad corridor, it was converted into a public path in the early 2000s. The trail provides a vital connection for cyclists, walkers, and runners, offering a safe and scenic route away from vehicle traffic. This image captures the path during autumn, with fallen leaves blanketing the asphalt, highlighting the seasonal beauty of the urban landscape.

Photo taken in October 2022.
