(Brad is the mayor of Shakopee, Minnesota.) @clmarohn’s version of hell from the top of the Memphis pyramid. pic.twitter.com/XLd5hlNY1I — Brad Tabke, Mayor (@MayorTabke) May 7, 2015 //platform.twitter.com/widgets.js On the left of the image is downtown Memphis. On the right is the Mississippi River. And in the middle is, well, a bunch of elevated highways. It’s a powerful image regardless of where you happen to be from.
