110 Grant Apartments is a 34-story residential tower in downtown Minneapolis built with concrete construction. The building houses many apartments and includes amenities like a swimming pool, laundry facilities, and parking for residents.
The building was designed by architects Hammel, Green and Abrahamson and opened in 1985 after two years of construction. Its completion marked an important moment in Minneapolis returning housing to downtown.
The building reflects how Minneapolis transformed its downtown in the 1980s by creating housing for people who wanted to live in the city center. This shift brought residents back to what had become a quieter part of town and helped revive street life.
The building sits in a central location with direct access to the Loring Greenway, a green space for walking and outdoor time. Its concrete construction helps reduce outside noise, making it a quieter place to live despite being downtown.
The concrete construction creates an unusually quiet indoor environment despite the downtown location. This acoustic feature means residents experience less noise from the busy city streets outside.
