The arched bridge in silhouette is the Tenth Avenue Bridge. The "white bridge" visible through the arches and spandrels is the new Interstate 35W Bridge. The Stone Arch Bridge can be seen in the background. The Lower Dam's closed lock gate is visible beneath the center arch in the image.

The Tenth Avenue Bridge was completed in 1929. The original bridge was three thousand feet long. A 1976 rebuild shortened the approaches.

Mixed Blood Theatre is a live theatre company housed in an old Minneapolis fire barn. Unfortunately, I can't tell you anything more about the building's history.

A nice industrial looking scene at night.
Night-shots > popular all-time > Neighborhood at Night; Minneapolis, Minnesota

I've lived in Minneapolis for nearly three decades and there are still a lot of places I haven't visited. I stumbled upon this neighborhood when I followed a whim and went straight instead of turning. It fronts the interchange between the I35W and I94 freeways. There are some lovely old apartment buildings here that require daylight to appreciate. The wooden wall is a noise barrier to block some of the freeway din.

It's tough to find anything brooding or ominous in a town as benign as Decorah. But I did my best.
