Two St. Paul-based developers have taken upon themselves the task of redeveloping the 10-story Waterview office tower as a 113-unit luxury apartment community. Plans are to complete the renovation and retrofitting work by August 2015.<\/p>\n<p>The result of a partnership between <a title=\"At Home Apartments\" href=\"https:\/\/www.athomeapartments.com\/\" rel=\"nofollow\" >At Home Apartments<\/a> and <a title=\"Interstate Partners\" href=\"https:\/\/www.interstatepartners.com\/\" rel=\"nofollow\" >Interstate Partners<\/a>, CityVue Apartments will be situated at 3435 Promenade Ave. and will feature 113 one- and two-bedroom residential units, a fitness center, a two-story covered parking ramp and a rooftop patio. The tower will offer easy access to I-35E and I-494, as well as various entertainment destinations such as O\u2019Leary Park and Lake, the Eagan Town Centre Shopping and Dining district, the Minnesota Zoo and the new Twin Cities Premium Outlet Mall.<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Black and Dew\" href=\"https:\/\/www.black-dew.com\/about\"  rel=\"nofollow\">Black and Dew<\/a> is working as general contractor for the project, while <a title=\"R.J. Ryan\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rjryan.com\/\" rel=\"nofollow\" >R.J. Ryan<\/a> is building the parking ramp and the commercial part of the structure. According to the<em> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.startribune.com\/cityvue-apartment-project-moving-forward-in-eagan\/291915661\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">Star Tribune<\/a><\/em>, the building is part of the larger CityVue Commons development at Yankee Doodle Road and Promenade Avenue, which is set to incorporate more than 30,000 square feet of retail space.<\/p>\n<p>At Home Apartments President Mark Cashill explained that the demand for quality housing in the Twin Cities is growing, \u201cas people increasingly put a premium on proximity to work, closeness to area attractions, and desire for the diversity of urban culture.\u201d Cashill also mentioned that such live-work-play communities come with elevated construction costs, high land prices and a lack of suitable available space. Nonetheless, he feels confident that \u201cthe demand for housing, and corresponding rent levels, more than justifies new housing alternatives within Minneapolis-St. Paul and first-tier suburbs of the Twin Cities.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>A number of luxury apartment projects are currently underway or were recently completed in the Twin Cities, including Everwood Development\u2019s <em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/cities\/minneapolis\/everwood-development-debuts-the-grain-belt-apartments-in-northeast-minneapolis\/1004117763.html\">The Grain Belt Apartments<\/a><\/em> in northeast Minneapolis and <em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/cities\/minneapolis\/shorenstein-ryan-advance-downtown-minneapolis-mixed-use-project\/1004120181.html\">100 Hennepin<\/a><\/em>, a mixed-use project developed by Shorenstein and Ryan Cos. in the North Loop.<\/p>\n<p><em>Image courtesy of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cityvueapartments.com\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">At Home Apartments<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A 30-year-old office building in the city of Eagan that once housed the Blue Cross Blue Shield of Minnesota is starting anew.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":192,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[36076],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1004122409","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-minneapolis-st-paul"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v28.0 (Yoast SEO v28.0) -
