With a close proximity to public transportation being such an important factor in what home buyers want today in a new place to live, starting a home search based on options that are located near certain light rail stations in Minneapolis makes a lot of sense. Aside from perhaps making that dreaded daily commute a little bit easier during the work week, living near the rail also can also mean higher home values and appreciation rates and easily being able to hit some of the city’s best restaurants, entertainment venues, or sporting events all without the hassle of trying to find somewhere to park. So, if you happen to be in the market for a new Minneapolis condo, let’s start your search with a few top-notch condo buildings near the 5th Street/Government Station, which is located right in the heart of Minneapolis’ Central Business District.
Perhaps the most recognizable condo building in downtown Minneapolis, The Carlyle stretches 39 stories high and is widely considered to be one of the more appealing towers in the entire city from an architectural standpoint. Inside, condos for sale at The Carlyle are equally as elegant and the building’s district Art Deco exterior, so take a look and see what’s available here today!
Known most for its convenient downtown location and wide range of functional floor plans throughout the building, it’s easy to see why condos at The Crossings are always in high demand. The building is also contact to the Minneapolis Skyway, while each unit is also equipped with a private balcony that enables residents to fully take in the sights and sounds of beautiful downtown Minneapolis.
Built in 1985 and standing 23 stories high, Centre Village is more of a traditional condo building that houses 235 units that range from studio condos to two-bedrooms. Because of the building’s age, interior finishes vary from unit-to-unit, but common amenities inside the building include a rooftop deck, a swimming pool, a fitness center, and a spa facility. Also one of the more affordable buildings, it’s a great spot to consider for anyone looking for a nice starter condo.
A 24-story condo tower that was renovated back in 2004, the City Heights Condos in downtown Minneapolis still have a fresh look and feel on the inside that should certainly fit the needs and wants of any home buyer looking for a downtown residence. In all, the City Heights condo building features 84 units and is also connected to the Skyway, giving residents direct access to most of the major office buildings in city.
