Low-flying helicopter to return to downtown Minneapolis Sunday
MINNEAPOLIS -- A large helicopter that was flying in downtown Minneapolis last week will make its return again on Sunday.
The helicopter is involved with an installation project on a downtown high rise. It's working to replace the HVAC system on top of U.S. Bank Plaza, a task that can't be completed with a crane.
The city says some sidewalks and streets will be closed, and asks residents to stay clear of the area.
🧵 A continuation of the work replacing the HVAC on top of US Bank Plaza in Downtown will occur Sunday, Feb 26. This will again require the use of a helicopter.
