Somehow I had missed posting many photos from our time walking Open Doors Minneapolis. It was an awesome way to explore and learn more about the city that was once known as the world's foremost producer of flour. Dayton's was a major department store back in its day, where its continuing legacy now living on via Target stores.
More about the renovation resides below:
"The newly restored 1.2 million square-foot building reimagines the historic and beloved department store as a mix between retail and office, offering a touchpoint in the heart of Minneapolis for community and a hub for business."
Enjoy!

The station tracks at Dayton Union Station in Dayton, Ohio, were elevated in 1930-1931 as part of a traffic congestion mitigation project. The initial part of the elevation opened on Dec. 15, 1930, and the first train to use the entire elevation operated on Jan. 15, 1931.
The image above was made shortly after sunrise on April 9, 1977. By now Amtrak's National Limited between New York and Kansas City is the only passenger train still using Dayton Union Station although freight trains of Conrail and the Chessie System continued to roll past the depot.
I am waiting for the Amtrak No. 31, which was scheduled to arrive in Dayton at 4:12 a.m. but is running more than two hours late. Late running was common for Nos. 30 and 31 in the 1970s due to the poor condition of the Penn Central (ex-Pennsylvania Railroad) tracks used by the National Limited in Ohio. But I was able to make a nice mood image of the rising sun. (Scanned from color negative film)

Built in 1909, this Renaissance Revival-style church was designed by Maginnis and Walsh for the congregation of St. Joseph Catholic Parish Church, founded in 1846. The building features a buff brick exterior with terra cotta trim, a stone base, a front entrance bay with a large roman arched transom featuring stained glass, decorative engaged ionic columns, cartouches, and sculptural reliefs, cornices with dentils and modillions, a gabled red terra cotta tile roof, roman arched stained glass windows and stained glass clerestories, niches with statues on the front facade, acroterions on the corners of the parapets, a semi-circular rear apse, and a campanile on the west facade with a terra cotta-clad facade and an open belfry, a pyramidal hipped roof, and a entrance porch on the side of the campanile. To the east of the building is a rectory, built around the same time as the church, with a similar buff brick exterior, a hipped roof, multi-story semi-circular bay windows, double-hung windows, and a front portico with ionic columns. The building today remains in use as a Catholic Parish Church.
Downtown Dayton, Ohio. Not much around and it looks as though the city is slowly shutting down. Another victim.
