Another Doors Open Minneapolis

I had two days planned for Doors Open. Scott wasn't feeling great on Saturday so we did what we could on Sunday.  Meadow was too busy crafting to join us.  I did teach her to make matcha before we left.  Our first stop was the Groveland Gallery. I was more curious to see the inside of the house after learning about it on my  1970's walking tour . You could only see the first floor. It had been a gallery so long that you could hardly tell it was once a home. There was a lot of traffic at the Sculpture Garden. We thought we'd go check out what was going on.

Biking to Doors Open Minneapolis 2025

This weekend was Doors Open. We had missed the last couple years so I had a big list of places to see. I thought we'd drive to get to more places quickly, but Scott insisted we bike as it was easier to park.  Theo and I were ready to take some pics. We started out at the Rand Tower. My personal favorite Minneapolis skyscraper. Next we got to see inside a manhole. They had robots patrolling the sewer and a live video feed on a TV.  Then we walked over to the Dayton's Project. I really wish their food hall idea would have followed through, it's sad to see it so empty.  It's still mostly empty and I'm not sure if they know what to do with the space. We got to go in the nooks and crannies of the old JB Hudsons space, like this the old window display. There was a lounge or bar that was opening soon to the public.

We Almost Didn't Make It to Doors Open Minneapolis

Theo thinks its okay to stand on tables. It's not.
