Plans are underway for the construction of a luxury student high-rise complex, named The Standard at Dinkytown. Developed by Landmark Properties the facility will be located at 514 14th S Avenue in the center of the University of Minnesota’s Greek Row. This location makes it accessible by foot from the university.
The development will have 30 affordable housing units with a variety of floor layouts. These will range from studios to five-bedroom apartments. Potential tenants will choose The Standard over other comparable properties. This is because of its unrivaled position in Minneapolis’ main hub.
All of the apartments’ interior spaces will include gourmet kitchens with stainless-steel equipment, quartz countertops, and plenty of storage space. Large closets, private bathrooms, in-unit washers, and cable are all standard in every apartment. They are also fully equipped with high-speed internet and television.
