History

The flag of Minneapolis was designed in 1955 by Louise Sundin as part of a contest. She received a $250 U.S. Savings Bond as her prize. The Minneapolis City Council adopted it as the official flag of the city on May 27, 1955.[1] A 2004 North American Vexillological Association survey of 150 American city flags put Minneapolis' design at 27th place.[2] Gizmodo, however, put the flag on their list of the worst city flags, saying it was "too simple".[3]
