Hidden behind an unassuming historic façade, The Banks Building offers elegantly designed interiors leveraging the building’s natural exposed brick and wood beams to curate a rustic yet modern atmosphere. Built in 1905, the building has been completely restored with refreshed common areas, stylish hardwood floors, and cavernous ceilings to foster creativity and innovation. This has brought an eclectic mix of high-tech office and creative studio tenants, including Media Loft, Linnihan Foy Advertising, and Brain Traffic.
The building has availabilities ranging from blank canvases for building out the perfect space to accelerate organizational success, an entire floor in turnkey condition so tenants can get to work right away, and even spaces equipped with loading docks and freight elevators. So any company can call The Banks Building home. With an abundance of surface parking, a rare luxury this close to downtown, any business will be able to accommodate its labor force and certainly attract more workers with the vibrant amenity corridor just outside its office.
Located a few blocks from the Mississippi River, The Banks Building is nestled in a picturesque setting, one that is quickly filling up with trendy lounges, high-end apartment complexes, and chic eateries. This has drawn thralls of young professionals to the area, as evidenced by the more than 1,300 new multi-family units delivered within a half-mile of The Banks Building since 2019. Employees can embrace the modern live-work-play lifestyle, but travel is a breeze for those who prefer to commute with a public transport stop on the corner and Interstate 35W less than a mile away. Before calling it a day, workers can relax with a cocktail at Otter’s Saloon across the street, seal the deal over a steak at Red Stag Supperclub a block away, or grab groceries at Lunds & Byerlys off Central Avenue. If that wasn’t enough, take a five-minute drive to Downtown Minneapolis and explore its unmatched nightlife or world-class events at US Bank Stadium and Target Field.
The location makes this a convenient and affordable option since rents opposite the Mississippi River average almost $10 per square foot higher than The Banks Building’s availabilities. For those looking to secure a prominent position in the heart of Minneapolis without sacrificing affordability or quality, look no further than The Banks Building.
