The 21‑storey property was completed in 2021 and was 95% leased at the time of the announcement.
JLL arranged a seven‑year acquisition facility through Freddie Mac.
Strategic context
Roundhouse entered the Minneapolis market with its 2025 purchase of Rafter, a 283‑unit rental tower, and has also acquired Second + Second in the North Loop. The latest acquisition adds another established rental property near its existing operations, expanding its local portfolio without taking on construction risk.
