A Storied Past Reconceived for Modern Living

Located at 250 Park Avenue S, Minneapolis, MN 55415, American Trio Lofts has a long and storied history. Commissioned by the Pittsburgh Glass Company, the building was designed by Franklin B. Long and Frederick Kees. Later serving as the headquarters of the Northern Implement Company, it was eventually converted into loft residences by Trio Development as part of the city’s revitalization efforts. Other notable historic conversions in the Downtown East/Mill District include Humboldt Lofts and Washburn Lofts. Today, 90 residences make American Trio one of the largest condominiums in the area, with mostly one- and two-bedroom layouts plus a few three-bedroom options.

The warehouse character of American Trio Lofts is showcased with huge industrial windows, exposed brick, soaring ceilings, stone beams, ductwork, and piping. While concrete floors were standard, some units now feature hardwood. Interior columns, sliding barn doors, built-ins, alcoves, and open Euro-style kitchens with Scandinavian cabinetry, tile backsplashes, and stainless steel appliances add style and function. Homes include modern baths, floating vanities, in-unit laundry, and generous storage. Top-floor units feature distinctive arched windows.

Redeveloped by the team behind CW Lofts, this landmark building blends historic charm with modern convenience. With recent sales ranging from $200,000 to $450,000, American Trio Lofts offers excellent value for industrial-chic living in Downtown East.
