The 2.5-acre lot is slated for new construction of a six-story multi-family housing community targeting urban dwellers in a prime “up-and-coming” location just west of downtown Minneapolis.

MINNEAPOLIS, MN, December 15, 2021 /24-7PressRelease/ — MAVEN Development Group announces its intention to acquire the property located at 250 Fremont Ave. N., Minneapolis MN. The 2.5-acre lot is slated for new construction of a six-story multi-family housing community targeting urban dwellers in a prime “up-and-coming” location just west of downtown Minneapolis. Closing is on track for early April 2022. First phase of occupancy in late 2023 or early 2024.

ABOUT THE PROPERTY

250 Fremont Avenue North sits on 2.5 acres of land currently undeveloped. The new construction will host more than 350 units in a six-story building with five stories of wood frame over first floor podium. The multi-residence building will host a mix of units including studios, one bedrooms, one bedroom plus dens, two bedrooms and walk-up units. The developers intend to leverage Inclusionary Zoning TIF by setting aside 20% of the units at 50% area median income.

Project amenities will include state of the art fitness center, a large second story amenity deck w/ Zen gardens, mediation/yoga area, natural landscaping, firepits, a large pool, cabanas, grilling stations, a dog park and more. A skyline rooftop clubroom with deck and secluded terraces will offer views of the downtown Minneapolis skyline. In addition, work from home nooks and breakout spaces will offer convenience for residents working hybrid or remotely. Also available will be an onsite “oasis” with nonperishable and daily essentials and toiletries.

ABOUT THE LOCATION

The property is in the Harrison neighborhood —this cornucopia of greenspace resides in a region on the brink of a major boom. In the last few years, previously blighted buildings have been repurposed to breweries, distilleries, and hot spots appealing to millennials and families alike. Local developers Wellington Management, Rise Modular, and Yellow Tree are also pursuing deals nearby. This area is on the verge of major transformation, and Maven and its investors are ready to ride that wave.

The Fremont property is just a few blocks away from a future light rail station that will serve the Metro Green Line extension, scheduled to begin operation in 2024. The location is perfectly situated just minutes west of Minneapolis’s core central business district and boasts great highway access to I94, 394, and HWY 55.

Neighborhood amenities include neighboring brewery/distillery – La Dona Cerveceria, The Firm, International Market Square, Minneapolis Farmer’s market, easy access to public transport, bike paths, etc.

“Taking an underutilized but well-located dirt storage lot and transforming it into much needed housing for 400+ people is an incredibly powerful thing to do,” stated Mike Munson, Development Director at Maven. “We see the Harrison neighborhood as a natural progression of downtown spillover and are excited to bring this project to the community.”
