Location
Our building is located in the North Loop at 801 Washington Ave. N., on the northeast edge of downtown Minneapolis, in the historic Warehouse District. Locate us at Google Maps.
Architectural Design
Our loft design is the work of nationally-renowned architect Garth Rockcastle of MS&R Architects. With the understanding that space and light are integral to loft living, residential windows and a three-story interior atrium fill home and workspace with light that changes throughout the day.
History
Built in 1913. the historic brick building was home to a farm implement factory, a Studebaker Packard showroom and Shafer Refrigeration. Antiques dealer Architectural Antiques was the most recent tenant, using the warehouse to showcase hard-to-find artifacts of the past.
