Downtown, or Minneapolis, is a level from Tony Hawk's Pro Skater. Later it reappeared in Tony Hawk's American Wasteland and the PSP version of Tony Hawk's Project 8 as a part of classic mode. Most recently, remastered in Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1 + 2.

Origin

The level is set in Minneapolis, Minnesota, but the environment is fictional.

Multiplayer layout

Players can only skate around the park. There are no taxis nor other buildings or roads from the single-player version until the later games where players can skate in the full version of the levels.

Trivia

In early Beta versions this level originally contained a statue of the "Bruce Willis" character model from the "Apocalypse" video game (Also developed by Neversoft). This was replaced with a water fountain in the final release. There was a parking garage in beta versions of the level, but was removed in the final versions. Those familiar with Minneapolis may notice the old "Metrodome" on the horizon in later iterations of the level.

Level specific

• Taxis which are riding across the map allow player to perform Car Plant trick.
