Dominium Completes Rehab of Historic Millworks Lofts in Minneapolis

MINNEAPOLIS — Dominium has completed the rehabilitation of the historic Millworks Lofts in Minneapolis. The renovation process included transforming two run-down buildings into 78 affordable apartment units. The building dates back to the 1920s and was formerly home to Lake Street Sash & Door Co., according to Minneapolis Business Journal. Many of the building’s historic features were preserved as part of the renovation, including the original windows. Paint was removed from the exterior brick to expose the original shell and the shed building was restored to its original cedar look. Amenities include a fitness center, yoga room, package room and rooftop clubrooms. The property features a geothermal power system, which will heat and cool the building. Millworks Lofts is the first affordable housing property in southern Minneapolis to have this infrastructure, according to Dominium. A grand opening celebration is scheduled for Friday, Sept. 22.
