Minneapolis Skyway Map

The Minneapolis skyway system has developed over the years out of necessity. The cold temperatures keep the downtown working population indoors for let’s face it, a good chunk of the year.

Unfortunately these above ground tunnels are organized in a chaotic pattern and contain no standard signage inside the system; partially due to each skyway being owned by one of the buildings it’s connected to. In general, only the people that use the skyway daily know their way around, and in most cases that is only to and from the building they work in to connected buildings.

What we did at Carticulate was create a skyway map that uses a proven way-finding system (subway map model) to build a new map for the movers and shakers of the skyway. The map guides users through the system as they moved from building to building, with each building would act as an individual “stop” along a certain route.
