Your Monthly N4MN Update 🥑 January 2025 🥑
|
Join N4MN as we tour Groove Lofts at Northstar Center, the first post-pandemic office-to-housing conversion in downtown Minneapolis!
We'll meet in the lobby of the Marquette Ave entrance to take a tour of the building, led by representatives from the Northstar Center, and gather for libations and discussion at the 8th Street grill following the tour. Can't wait to see you there!
