Construction begins on North Loop Green

Minneapolis’ North Loop is officially getting a new mixed-use development with an apartment high-rise and office tower next to Target Field. North Loop Green will feature a 36-story apartment tower with 350 residential units and 100 short-term rental units and a 14-story tower with 350,000 square feet of office space. It will also include at least 15,000 square feet of space for food and retail stores, as well as a 1-acre park, known as “The Green,” next to the Cedar Lake Bike Trail, where the building intends to host public events, including movie nights, performances, and seasonal festivals.
