Also well designed and convenient. Don't use it very often though, but very good so as not to freeze you whats it off in winter up here. Both skyways are very good for business as they offer shops etc between main office buildings, and who wants to stop at a street vendor at 40 +below tempeture or windchill.? More

If you don't want to go to the Mall of America, this system for connecting buildings is perfect. Park in one of several garages, leave your coat in the car, and be able to cross from building to building in the elevated skyways. It's especially pretty when it's snowing, because it feels as if you are walking on air surrounded... More

People make fun of our 'habitrails' but when it's 20 below and the wind is blowing, you can get from events to dining to shopping without freezing off your ears. Occasinally they have art or other fun stuff, would like to see more of that. More

I thonk this p[lace is very usefull specially on winter, you can cross the Saint Paul downtown inside the buildings. You can fond access to Macy's and other shopping, food, children museum, and more. Is not a great place to take care about but useful for spending time inwinter. More
