Who says people are leaving downtowns? ELEVEN ready to change the residential game in the heart of Minneapolis
Co-developers Arcadia LLC and Ryan Companies US, Inc. are changing downtown Minneapolis’ skyline with the construction of ELEVEN, a condominium tower that will become the tallest residential building in the state when it officially opens. The tower will also be the tallest building to rise in Minneapolis since 1992.
Ryan Companies and Arcadia in April celebrated the topping out of ELEVEN when construction crews raised the final steel reinforcement beam and placed it into concrete.
Construction on ELEVEN, a building that is notable, too, for being the first residential project in Minnesota for famed architecture studio Robert A.M. Stern Architects, is now more than two-thirds complete. Impressively, buyers have also already purchased two-thirds of the project’s residential units, even before the property is slated to open in early 2022.

The changes in the Minnesota Capitol are more subtle: Democrats kept control of the House, while Republicans retained the Senate. But the new Minnesota Legislature includes the most diverse group of lawmakers in the state’s history and a new Hmong American majority whip in the House.
Since 2014, the number of legislators of color in the Minnesota Capitol has more than tripled, from eight to 25. That means people of color represent 12 percent of the Legislature, while people of color make up some 20 percent of the Minnesota population.
