"Shinders to Borders"
May 03, 2007
Here's a cool Minneapolis story for you: "A short film about a dirty old block, currently wearing new cheap makeup." That would be Block E, once home to rowdy punks and drunks. Now home to... shoppers and drunks?
A film by artist Stewart Van Cleve. YouTube version here.

My brother works at the Starbucks in Block E.
Nice little history piece.

Not to be a doink, but Bob Mould is the leader of (phonetically speaking) H"oo"sker Du, not H"u"sker Du. Minor critique of a nicely done retrospective.

Yes, I made the correct pronunciation in my head too.

Very cool piece. It's always interesting to see how city neighborhoods change...
...and how they don't.
