When I was a wee teenager, a friend and I would skip school, dress in our nicest clothes, and wander the MPLS skyway acting like business-men. We’d buy a paper in City Center and sit on a bench in the IDS court acting all proper and important-like. How silly in retrospect.
For all the years the skywalk has been around, it looks pretty good! Thanks for sharing.
Anyone know the birthdate and connections of the original skywalk? I don’t, just asking.
I remember some of the later installments – under the Radisson and library/Superior Street.
As a little kid I wondered why people would watch the Christmas Parade from the skywalk in connections to places like MP&L and Holiday Center.
Now as an adult, I understand…brrr
Cool vid. Thanks for posting.

They really need to open the Skywalk for a late night bike race…All the way to the DECC
I’d be interested in them allowing pac-man in the DULUTH skyway. Now that’d be fun!!

The Northwest Passage Skywalk, connecting the DECC (then the Duluth Arena) to the downtown opened in October 1977.
