Lake Calhoun is gone, get it right..... Bde Maka Skajatkay for me it is I'm not talking downtown even tho last weeks protest trashed out many busineses ,my days of chasing on lake street is all burnt down bars ,reasturants just a shell of what it was in my days,back in the 80's.wish I had before and after pics of our stomping grounds.,sad deal,cruising by on the freeway you won't see the distruction,lake street from Bde Maka Ska to the mississippi buildings are gone,rumble,guess its called "old mpls" these days.

Agreed,I think somewhere around 200+ businesses were burnt down just on lake street alone,shells of burnt out cars caught in the crossfire burnt,target and cub foods on lake street but looted before they were torched,sad deal,today would'nt bother going to any part of the city.but thats me plenty of "lookey lou's" gawking at the distruction,might end up in the wrong part of town doing so.
You need to look at the positives! Just think of all the new space that has opened up for granola eating-yuppie-white privilege believing-overpriced apartments! Add to that some newly remodeled grocery stores/ target what’s not to like about the new and improved Lake Street! Too bad the police kept the protests out of the cake eater neighborhoods in Edina or who knows what might have happened!
