ABOUT BURLAP LOFTS

Burlap Lofts is a new 50,000-square-foot boutique office and retail destination currently under construction in the booming East Bank/Nicollet Island neighborhood of Northeast Minneapolis.

Originally constructed in 1910, this two-building/ three- and four-story complex is undergoing a top-to-bottom redesign to offer creative lux-loft office spaces, retail shops, and a gorgeous mix of tenant amenities both inside and out.

High design meets historic charm in these century-old brick-and-timber structures, and few locations in the country offer an equally dynamic mix of surrounding dining, shopping, entertainment, and outdoor enjoyment.

  • Construction Type: Type IV / Mass Timber
  • New construction addition/connecting structure: Located between the two existing buildings (also mass timber construction) a new 5-story elevator (basement-4th floor) and additional common area amenity space are being constructed.
  • Egress/Access: New 9’9” passenger/freight elevator, 2 new internal stairwells, 1 renovated internal stairwell; ADA access throughout including basement
  • Repurposed original elevator shafts into additional amenity spaces and catwalks to new office suites
