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.
