ARTHAUS APARTMENTS
Minneapolis, MN 2023, Christian Dean Architecture
Team: Jessica Harner, Christian Dean, Pamela Sax, Beth Schmiesing Size: 9,300sf Type: 12 Unit Apartment Complex
New 3 story, 12 unit apartment complex built on what was previously a single family lot. This project was made possible because of the passing of Minneapolis’s “2040 Plan” which eliminated single family zoning in an effort to remedy the effects of historic redlining as well as to allow for increased density of housing and a greater variety of housing options.
The developer and owner of this project has worked with Christian Dean Architecture on many projects like it. The goal is always to provide high quality, beautiful housing at an affordable price.
