Visit to Sioux Falls, SD

What a pleasant surprise this city was. Had a friends wedding to go to so I drove with a group of college friends all the way from Ann Arbor, MI to Sioux Falls. Though we were there for about 4 days, our first day had the nicest weather. I spent about 4 hours photographing downtown. Hope you enjoy!

What a surprise. I would have never thought this would be attatched to Sioux Falls! Would make a nice stop on a roadtrip. Thanks.

Very nice pics! I've been there a few times but only passed through downtown. Reminds me of Sioux City, IA nearby, but slightly larger and nicer.

Very nice falls but I wish they left the surroundings a bit more natural.

Nice pics!! Sioux Falls has a well maintained CBD!! Now they need a couple of mid-rises of about 15-20 stories!!

Nice pics of growing Midwest City. I've had the opportunity to visit on business about 3 times in last 5 years and have stayed in the downtown area. I was very impressed with the activity and loft conversions happening there. SF is definately on the right track!!

Wonderful pics. And the city looks quite nice. Some of those buildings are gems. Thanks for the tour Hayward, and I like the falls too.
