Racket on dive-bar fenestration in Minneapolis—

'It's an architectural feature that has aged itself into being trendy again: the glass block window. They’re the perfect solution for when you want to let a little light in but don’t want a window that something (or someone) can be thrown through. Once I started noticing glass block windows, I started to see them everywhere. Some of the better ones are even pretty, in a “default desktop wallpaper starter pack” sort of way.

'The rules: I’m only including dive bars in Minneapolis that are open at the time of publishing, and I’m only ranking them by their glass block windows. (Want to rank glass block windows in St. Paul? You know what to do.) I’ve probably missed some places and it’s possible I’ll be wrong on some stuff, but if you’ve read this far, I’ve already won—we have your click.'
