Somehow this thing still exists, made it through all the Hennepin construction and transit station work.

Installed years ago when there were no apartments on the greenway yet.

totally - have a long list of shows recorded between 96-2003 that i wish i knew who the filmer was. I have a lot of 2nd-4th gen Target Center and other local venue recordings. I'd love to show my respect to the filmers of this era (and get upgraded copies)
