Overview
The Minneapolis Skyway System is a network of enclosed, second-floor walkways connecting dozens of downtown blocks, so people can cross downtown without going outside.
History
The first skyway opened in 1962, and the network grew into one of the largest in the world.
Today
Office workers and shoppers use the skyways daily, especially in winter, and building security staff patrol them.
