Great stuff! I suppose the early 90's could be "vintage." It does seem like a different time in those pictures.

The snow of those February 1994 photos reminded me that we had a really bad winter/ice storm in Cincinnati in January or February of that year. I'm guessing Minneapolis also got it, but probably worse because it's farther north? :tup:

I think I’ve changed planes at MSP three times, but one time it was like a 7 hour layover. I took a bus to downtown Minneapolis. Didn’t have much time and it was January but what I saw was lovely. This was around 1997 or so. Sadly I’ve never made it back.
These photos are great. The only photos I have of this vintage are of Phoenix, Las Vegas, and LA. |
From certain angles, Minn and Paul look AWESOME!
|
Great photos Todd!

the last time we went a few years ago we met some friends out and they said, “so what did you do on your first day?” and we said, “oh you know, the usual touristy thing, we went to matt’s for a juicey lucy” and they just stared at us and said, “minneapolis doesn’t get any tourists.” lol not true! |

damn it, there are really awesome photos here!

Nice photos! I'm pretty sure the Berman Buckskin building was the oldest building in the Warehouse District when they knocked it down. It was torn down for the new Federal Reserve branch. Minneapolis is in the habit of decrying all the classic old buildings it has torn down and then doing it again.

come look at ohio cities’ historic stock. what’s left of it! |

As a resident of Ohio for the past 10 years, I’d say Ohio cities have lots of issues, but the loss of historic building stock is less than what Minneapolis experienced, especially a city like Cincinnati. |
This song really fits with the 90s pictures! Didn't even own a camera backthen. The skyline and streets haven't changed much, but the cars are really different now.
