7th Street Before Dayton’s
The corner of 7th Street and Nicollet Mall in the heart of downtown Minneapolis is a well-travelled corner. For over a century, Dayton’s department store (later Marshall Fields and Macys, and now the Dayton’s Project) has been the corner’s centerpiece. The statue of Mary Tyler Moore, added much more recently, also draws many to the area. Perhaps unnoticed behind Mary’s hat-throwing likeness is a small plaque hinting at the intersection’s life before she and Dayton’s came to 7th Street.
From 1882 to 1895, Westminster Presbyterian Church anchored this popular downtown corner. The congregation, founded in 1857, built its first sanctuary on 4th Street between Hennepin and Nicollet avenues in 1861. On March 11, 1883, Westminster formally dedicated its new, larger space at the corner of 7th and Nicollet. The building cost $150,000 to build, and its main auditorium could hold 1,200 people. On the morning of September 6, 1895, fire broke out in one of the church’s cupolas. Despite efforts by the fire department, the roof collapsed, and the interior of the church was heavily damaged.
Almost immediately, talk began of relocating the church out of the downtown core. An editorial in the Minneapolis Tribune the day after the fire boldly stated that:
The people of the city would like to see the Westminster lot on Nicollet avenue covered with a modern business block, and a new and more imposing Westminster church arise on some commanding site nearer to the homes of the people.
The paper’s editorial board got both of its wishes. Westminster Presbyterian Church opened its new building in 1897 at the corner of Nicollet and 12th St. S (its current location), in what was then a residential area. By 1902, the church’s old location had become Dayton’s.

Target Corporation is the eighth-largest retailer in the United States
Target established itself as the highest-earning division of the Dayton-Hudson Corporation in the 1970s; it began expanding the store nationwide in the 1980s and introduced new store formats under the Target brand in the 1990s. The company has found success as a cheap-chic player in the industry.[4] The parent company was renamed the Target Corporation in 2000 and divested itself of its last department store chains in 2004. It suffered from a massive and highly publicized security breach of customer credit card data and the failure of its short-lived Target Canada subsidiary in the early 2010s but experienced revitalized success with its expansion in urban markets within the United States.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g8JbzLWSRog
As of May 26, 2019, Target operates 1,851[1] stores throughout the United States. The company is ranked No. 39 on the 2018 Fortune 500 list of the largest United States corporations by total revenue.[5] Their retail formats include the discount store Target, the hypermarket target employee schedule , and "small-format" stores previously named CityTarget and Target Express before being consolidated under the Target branding. Target is often recognized for its emphasis on "the needs of its younger, image-conscious shoppers", whereas its rival Walmart more heavily relies on its strategy of "always low prices".
The Westminster Presbyterian Church in downtown Minneapolis burned down during the Panic of 1893. Without insurance coverage to cover the financial loss, the congregation found itself unable to rebuild. The church appealed to parishioner George Dayton to purchase an empty corner lot adjacent to the original church in its possession; funds raised from the property sale allowed the church to rebuild and Dayton constructed a six-story building on his newly purchased property

10 Things You Probably Don’t Know About Target
1. From ashes to blazes to fortune
Indeed, the primary Target store was revived, as it were, from a congregation that had torched in 1895 in Minneapolis. George Dayton, a land engineer, purchased property that had been the Westminster Presbyterian Church.
He at that point utilized the grounds to develop a six-story building. Needing a fundamental store on the property, he had Goodfellows Dry Goods move to the premises, with much achievement. His family at that point began Target in 1961.
2. Target… or "Tarjay"?
By and by, I despise the phony French way to express Target (maybe in light of the fact that acing a French articulation is hard for anybody, even those of us who took long periods of French), however I get it's been a pattern since 1962.
Douglas Dayton acquired the business at that point and said individuals started saying "Tarjay" in those days!
3. What are those enormous red balls outside the store(s) for?
In a word, wellbeing. Made of cement, the "bollards" help keep autos from coincidentally crashing into the entryway and hitting customers. (One couple even begun posting pics with them on Instagram… for 365 days straight!)
4. One Target store wound up known for pornography… and showed everybody out!
In "the most joyful spot in America," San Luis Obispo, a customer made obscene commotions over the PA framework, making work force get out staff and customers.
5. They might probably tell in case you're pregnant… before your family and companions do!
Truly, by and by (as is basic nowadays), information investigation become possibly the most important factor here, in view of what one purchases when shopping (i.e., more enhancements, which is identified with a pregnant lady's second trimester).
At that point, Target could send these ladies explicit coupons. This is anything but a positive encounter for everybody, however, particularly not the dad of a young person who had no clue she was pregnant until all the infant situated coupons arrived!
6. They are genius breastfeeding in the store
Indeed, moms can encourage their infants anyplace in the store—no compelling reason to run and stow away in the restroom or a scanty path. (A Texas store once requested that a mother do as such plainly, which caused much attention and "medical attendant ins.")
7. Refrigerated Doritos, anybody?
A year ago, customers ended up befuddled over observing Doritos in the refrigerated zone of the store. It worked out that Target was endeavoring to advance a formula for "strolling tacos"— including not just standard taco fixings like ground meat and cheddar, yet in addition Doritos.
8. 11 stores were opened in one (!) day!
In March of 1993, Target opened 11 Chicago stores… around the same time! (Some figure this may have been because of rivalry with Kmart and Wal-Mart).
9. CVS currently possesses their drug stores
Gone are where Target gave out their own solutions. Back in June, it was chosen that CVS Pharmacy would dominate (at the little cost of right around two billion dollars).
It's said that Target required the cash after designs for progressively Canadian stores failed to work out.
10. They assisted Washington, D.C.— explicitly, the Washington Monument
In 1997, the Washington Monument should have been fixed, and Target ventured in with $1 million for the National Park Service.
The store chain likewise got Michael Graves to loan his aptitude about the rebuild, and he later was the primary "name" fashioner to dispatch a line of items for Target.

Minneapolis outdoor art Nicollet Mall
Outdoor art in Minneapolis sprouts from many locations. The Driveby Tourist plans to make this part of a topic called "Outdoor Art and Architecture" as sometimes it's hard to determine if a building or other structure is either one. So, Minneapolis outdoor art Nicollet Mall (link) contains various forms of art. (Unfamiliar with the Twin Cities? Nicollet Mall bisects downtown and becomes "Main Street"). While some would argue that Hennepin Avenue is the "Main Street", but that's a story for another post.
Tumblr media
Minneapolis Downtown Art
Undeniably, a Twin Cities favorite may be the Bob Dylan mural at 1 South Fifth Street. A Brazilian artist won the rights to paint this mural. Above all, for those unfamiliar, Bob Dylan is from Hibbing MN. Although born in Duluth, his parents opened an appliance store in Hibbing on the Iron Range. Following his high school graduation, he attended the University of Minnesota for part of a year. Soon, leaving his college days behind, he headed to New York. And, the song reference, "The Times they are a-Changin' " is as true today as when he released the song in 1964.
Nicollet Mall
Although the Bob Dylan mural isn't "technically" on the Nicollet Mall, it's only one block away and should be considered part of the Nicollet Mall outdoor art. (Or, at least I say it should!) By the way, the Nicollet Mall (link) is an outdoor mall running through the center of Downtown Minneapolis. Another key point, the mall planning began in the early 1960s and was completed in late 1967. And, the mall evolved by including more local stores and restaurants. Some of the large retailers closed and replaced by small shops and other local attractions. Interestingly, the mall remains a major Twin Cities attraction for shopping and entertainment. (The mall became the first "transit mall" in the US as it allowed only public transit vehicles.) While I don't really like to include Wikipedia links, this one gives a good history of the Nicollet Mall.
Minneapolis Downtown Art - Beginning
Tumblr media
Waterfall at the south end of Nicollet Mall The waterfall is decorative and doesn't symbolize anything specific. But, it's a good start on the south end of the mall.
Cancer Survivors Memorial
Tumblr media
Richard and Annette Bloch, of H & R Block fame, developed the concept of Cancer Survivors parks. Presently, the Minneapolis location is one of 25 parks in the US and Canada. Thus, the Richard & Annette Bloch Family Foundation continues to fight cancer. Richard Bloch was diagnosed with Stage 4 Lung Cancer in 1978 and given 3 months to live. He valiantly fought the disease and became cancer-free in two years. He and his wife dedicated their lives to fighting cancer. Richard passed away in 2004 from heart disease at the age of 78.
Tumblr media
Sculpture of cancer survivors Presently, cancer is the #2 killer in the US, with heart disease being first. However, cancer seems to create more fear in those who receive the diagnosis. As an illustration, the window frames indicate the sometimes twisting and turning cancer treatment protocols. And those emerging appear happy and celebratory as survivors. And, those entering demonstrate the fear and anxiety of the various methods that treatment entails.
Pictures in the sidewalk
Tumblr media
Nicollet Mall sidewalk art So, sidewalk art inserts. These were designed by Seitu Jones, Ta-coumba Aiken, and Soyini Guyton. Of course, a link to the "Shadows of Spirits Pavement Inserts". (Again, couldn't keep people away long enough to take a picture, hence the shadow!)
Tumblr media
Another pavement insert Follow on from above. Another insert by the same artists.
Music Wall of Minneapolis Downtown Art
Tumblr media
"Music Wall" at the former Schmitt Music building. Seems to many to be a mystery on how it got there. To tell the story, back in the 1970s, Schmitt Music advertising manager received a boost from a Minneapolis Star columnist to "do something about that blank wall", maybe she said "make it sing! ??). So, the manager did: Turns out, the music is from a piano piece written by French composer Maurice Ravel called “Gaspard de la Nuit.” Specifically, the section depicted on the wall comes from the third movement, called “Scarbo.”. World renown pianist Van Cliburn had his photo taken there. Also, it is arguably one of the most difficult pieces for a pianist to play. (I'm definitely not a pianist, so don't ask me!)
Family Statue at Westminster Presbyterian Church
Tumblr media
Family Statue The Westminster Presbyterian church contributed to art on the Nicollet Mall as well.
Peavey Plaza in front of Orchestra Hall on Nicollet Mall
Tumblr media
Peavey Plaza Orchestra Hall is on Nicollet Mall as well and Peavey Plaza fronts the mall.
Tumblr media
More Peavey Plaza Originally, the Peavey family foundation, founders of a flour and feed milling operations company, spearheaded the building. (Maybe you know that Minneapolis was once known as the "Mill City"? No, not all of you know that.) The last renovation, completed in 2019, was funded by Twin Cities businesses and individuals. Here is a link to the renovated Peavey Plaza.
Lanterns - Minneapolis Outdoor Art Nicollet
Tumblr media
And these globes (lanterns) signify different meanings. Of course, the obligatory link to the "About the Artist" page.
IDS Tower sculpture
Tumblr media
Just another sculpture - Significant as IDS is the tallest building in Minneapolis Incidentally, this sculpture marks the IDS building which is (supposedly) the tallest building in Minneapolis. Actually, depending on how you measure, the Capella Tower is taller but only if you count a decorative structure on top. In true "Minnesota Nice" fashion, the IDS building continues to be known as the tallest and the owners of the Capella Tower don't try to put in a claim!
Central Public Library - Nicollet Mall
Tumblr media
Nimbus sculpture fronting the Minneapolis Central Library Really, the Nimbus sculpture fronts the library. Another key point, the sculpture became a gathering place for people of all walks of life. (I couldn't get them all to move so I could take a picture!)
Tumblr media
Another view of the Nimbus And, here is the link to the Nimbus. By the way, here is a link to the continuously evolving "Everything Twin Cities" series of my blog posts. In summary, I hope you continue to enjoy. And, both visitors to the Twin Cities and current residents are likely to find value here. Again, thank you for reading about Minneapolis Outdoor Art Nicollet.
Classic Rock Recollection
"The Times They Are A'Changin' " by Bob Dylan "Come gather 'round, people Wherever you roam And admit that the waters Around you have grown And accept it that soon You'll be drenched to the bone If your time to you is worth savin' And you better start swimmin' Or you'll sink like a stone For the times they are a-changin' " Written by Bob Dylan The Driveby Tourist #the-driveby-tourist Read the full article

14 Things You Might Not Know About Target
With around 1800 stores the nation over, Target has utilized its notoriety for being a marginally increasingly upscale Walmart to turn into the second-biggest retailer in North America. The organization guarantees “spotless, extensive” shopping regions and depends on a commonplace red shading plan to make it emerge from an excess of rebate stores.
Normally, no colossal aggregate gets the opportunity to be this huge without welcoming a tad of contention, including the ongoing news that they would dispose of sexual orientation distinguishing proof in certain divisions. Peruse up on their capacity to anticipate pregnancies, the lunacy of refrigerating Doritos, and the rationale behind those solid red balls.
THE BUSINESS STARTED WITH A CHURCH FIRE.
When the new century rolled over, land designer George Dayton hauled opportunity out of as yet stewing ashes when he purchased a stretch of property in Minneapolis, Minnesota that had recently been home toward the Westminster Presbyterian Church. At the point when the congregation torched in 1895, Dayton had the option to utilize the grounds to assemble a six-story business building. Feeling it required an essential store, Dayton persuaded Goodfellows Dry Goods to move there. That thriving retail business drove the family to begin the Target rebate establishment in 1961.
“TARJAY” WAS A THING EVEN IN THE ’60S.
Articulating “Focus” just as it were a French boutique is more established than you might suspect. Douglas Dayton, who acquired the Dayton business alongside his siblings, reviewed that individuals were making that joke from the time the main Minneapolis area opened in 1962.
THOSE BIG RED BALLS OUTSIDE ARE FOR YOUR SAFETY.
Thudded unceremoniously before many Target areas are mammoth solid balls called bollards. While they do supplement the store’s red stylish, they likewise fill a practical need: to shield vehicles from crashing into the entryway and battering customers.
Propelled by the bollards, one wedded couple took to Instagram and Facebook to post photographs of themselves interfacing with them for 365 days in a row. (Have very little fun with them, however, When the organization put a beautifying volley ball shaded texture over the balls in 2007, individuals whined that kids may kick them and break their feet.)
Customers WERE EVACUATED FROM ONE STORE DUE TO A PORN EMERGENCY.
A San Luis Obispo store needed to clear itself of clients and staff this past July after a law breaker figured out how to seize their open declaration framework and pipe obscene commotions over the speakers. The SLO Tribune revealed that administration had the option to mood killer the overjoyed soundtrack following the departure.
THEY KNOW IF YOU’RE PREGNANT. (Regardless of whether YOUR FAMILY DOESN’T.)
An organization representative warned The New York Times Magazine in 2012 that information examination acquired from shopping could be arranged to evaluate whether a customer is pregnant. Utilizing a record of exchanges, things endemic to second-trimester shopping (unscented moisturizers, supplements like calcium and zinc) were recognized. The organization could even make a sensible gauge of when a client was expected and send them coupons customized for their needs. Frightening? Indeed, particularly when the dad of a young person called a Minneapolis store to grumble his little girl was getting child related coupons. Turns out he didn’t realize she was pregnant.
THEY’LL LET YOU BREAST-FEED ANYWHERE IN THE STORE.
In case you’re areola loath, you should need to rethink a Target trip. The organization as of late declared an approach that considers moms to fuel their infants anyplace they please on the premises. Housewares, hardware, outdoor supplies, stationery—no division is absolved. The strategy was broadcasted after one mother was wrongly advised to conceal in Texas and stores experienced composed “nurture ins” in challenge.
THEY LIKE TO REFRIGERATE DORITOS.
In 2014, individuals took to the Internet to voice their perplexity over Target stores that were keeping packs of Doritos in their coolers. Was there some new, up ’til now unfamiliar approach to welcome the delectable tortilla chip? Had Doritos been transitory this time? The fact of the matter was fairly less thrilling, but significantly all the more sickening. Turns out they were attempting to advance a formula for “strolling tacos” that called for refrigerated things like destroyed cheddar, ground meat and sharp cream to get blended inside a sack of Doritos.
THEY ONCE OPENED 11 STORES IN ONE CITY IN ONE DAY.
In a strong move not even Starbucks has endeavored, Target opened 11 stores in Chicago around the same time in March of 1993. The forceful dispatch may have been proposed to proclaim retail war on contenders Wal-Mart and Kmart: Chicago was the first run through each of the three were going toward each other in a noteworthy market.
THEIR PHARMACIES ARE NOW OWNED BY CVS.
Target was once in charge of doling out their very own medicines, however no more. In June, the organization declared that CVS Pharmacy would purchase their medicine dispensaries for near two billion dollars and the areas will be re-marked as CVS installations. Why sell? The organization required some money after their Canadian extension plans failed.
THEY HELPED REPAIR THE WASHINGTON MONUMENT.
In 1997, the organization set up $1 million and promised extra help to the National Park Service to fix a haggard Washington Monument. While organizations frequently make costly signals, Target went one better and helped enroll Michael Graves to help conceptualize thoughts to strengthen the structure during the reclamation work. Graves later become the organization’s first “name” architect to make a big appearance a line of marked items.
“MANATEE GRAY” AS A PLUS-SIZED COLOR WAS A MISTAKE.
A Target.com customer was shocked when she recognized a size determination alternative for a Mossimo kimono dress in 2013. The majority of the sizes were marked “dull heather dark” with the exception of the larger estimated choice that was named “manatee dim.” Target clarified that it was a real shading found over an assortment of lines and that consigning it to only one size in the dress was in blunder.
“ALEX FROM TARGET” GOT DEATH THREATS.
Back in November 2014, a photograph of Alex Lee—an attractive, 16-year-old Frisco, Texas Target representative—turned into a web sensation, and fantastic Alex before long turned into an Internet image of extensive extents. He went from 100 Twitter devotees to 100,000 practically medium-term and displaying offers before long pursued. Be that as it may, not every person was taken with his big name. Alex revealed to The New York Times he got a few dangers of viciousness and saw his family’s government disability numbers posted on the web. Unflinching, Alex (who has since left Target to seek after different endeavors, such as visiting with other viral characters) presently has 1.8 million Instagram supporters and a Gmail address only for money related offers: You can contact him at “alexleeforbusiness”.
THEY REINVENTED THE SHOPPING CART.
While a few stores are substance to let metal shopping baskets age not exactly effortlessly, Target chose that their trucks needed a makeover. In 2006, the organization enrolled Design Continuum to figure out a truck so it was simpler and progressively agreeable to move. 15 to 20 pounds lighter than a customary steel truck, the plastic adaptation is more averse to harm racks—or the calves of customers before you.
THE DOG FLIES FIRST CLASS.
Presented in 1999, adorable store mascot Bullseye has been a consistent in Target’s promotion battles. Normally, the bull terrier goes in lodging deserving of her position. She’s been seen in top of the line, and a rider determines to what extent she’s ready to work during individual appearances.
Gracious, and on the off chance that you’re pondering, the bullseye color all over is vegetable-based.
