A fireworks display puts the final touches on the lighting ceremony for the 1992 Ice Palace during opening night on Harriet Island in St. Paul Wednesday, Jan. 22, 1992. Media from around the world, drawn here by the upcoming Super Bowl in Minneapolis, were on hand. Standing 166 feet high, the palace is nearly three times bigger and 40 feet taller than St. Paul’s last palace, built for the Winter Carnival’s centennial in 1986. Valica Boudry / Pioneer Press)
