Experience Character and Modern Amenities in the Heart of Downtown
Union Plaza’s five story building sits on historic Dock Street and Washington Avenue, steps from Cedar Lake Trail, the commuter light rail line, and skyway connection to the Central Business District. Exposed timber beams and rough-hewn brick walls provide the bones for inspiring workplace design for today’s creative and collaborative workforce. Our tenants, ownership and on-site property management create a community as rich and varied as the history of the North Loop, while embracing modern comforts and amenities.
Historic Architecture Meets Modern Workplace Design
Originally built in 1895, Union Plaza exemplifies the architectural heritage that makes the North Loop one of Minneapolis’ most distinctive business districts.
The building’s exposed timber construction and industrial character create an authentic workspace atmosphere that modern creative professionals and innovative companies seek. Large windows flood the space with natural light, while high ceilings and open floor plans offer flexibility for businesses of all sizes—from startups and solo practitioners to established firms looking to expand.
The building’s thoughtful renovation preserves its historic integrity while incorporating contemporary amenities essential for today’s workforce. Climate-controlled environments, modern HVAC systems, and updated electrical infrastructure ensure comfort and functionality without compromising the building’s unique character.
Union Plaza, built in 1895, was once the home of Duddy Tire Warehouse. The property was remodeled to commercial office space in 1984, with utmost importance placed on maintaining the integrity of the structure and historic characteristics unique to the property. This is apparent in the massive, exposed brick and limestone blocks that are visible throughout the building.
