The Midtown Corner apartment building, at 29th Street
and S. 26th Avenue in Minneapolis
The initial comment in favor of the looters came when he
retweeted the photo of a burning building - which turned
out to be a housing development under construction,
according to the Star Tribune.

Minneapolis vandalism targets include 189-unit affordable
housing development
The under-construction affordable housing development that burned in the widespread violence in south Minneapolis late Wednesday and early Thursday was to be a six-story rental building with 189 apartments for low-income renters, including more than three dozen for very low-income tenants.
Construction began last fall on Midtown Corner, which was expected to be completed and ready for occupancy this year. Late Wednesday the wood-framed upper floors of the building were fully engulfed in flames, with thick plumes of smoke that figured prominently in widely viewed photos of the riots. By Thursday morning, what had been an active construction site was reduced to a pile of smoldering ashes atop what was left of the concrete first-floor commercial space.
The redevelopment project was on the site of the former Rainbow Foods grocery store at Lake Street and Hiawatha Avenue in south Minneapolis.
The developer, Twin Cities-based Wellington Management, declined to comment Thursday on the fate of the project.
Wellington has done several income-restricted rental projects throughout the Twin Cities on difficult-to-redevelop sites, including offices and an apartment building that are under construction along Penn Avenue in north Minneapolis.
Wellington has been a prolific developer and investor in
the area for more than a decade. Over the years the
company has developed several rental buildings in the Lake
and Hiawatha corridor, and it has also invested in
commercial projects including the Greenway Office Building
and the Hi-Lake Shopping Center.
The fire also heavily damaged 7-Sigma, a high-tech manufacturing company that’s occupied a low-rise industrial building across the street from the Midtown Corner site for more than 30 years. The entire roof and upper floors of that brick building were destroyed, and water spilled out of broken windows on the lower floors as firefighters continued dousing the building with water early Thursday.
Barb Jeanetta is executive director of Alliance Housing, a
nonprofit that has two rental buildings in the area,
including Hiawatha Commons, an 80-unit low-income
apartment building adjacent to Cub Foods and Target. Some
of the first-floor retail tenants were looted and
vandalized, but the building was largely unscathed.
