2606 E Hennepin Ave Apartments

approachable and prompt with any problem that might arise. Included off-street parking and A/C unit are major pluses as well. It's very close to shopping at the Quarry center, a 15 minute bike ride from St Anthony Main, great running & walking options, and multiple food & drink places within walking distance (Insight Brewing and Manning's Cafe are two favorites). There's a bus stop less than a block away with easy access to both downtown Minneapolis and St Paul. Extremely easy access to 280 and southbound 35W as well. Bike to the State Fair! The drawbacks: as it is an older building, it can be pretty drafty in the winter, and soundproofing is nearly non-existent. Footsteps and other noise above can become a nuisance if you require a quiet living environment (the main reason why I moved out). It's also a bit "lived-in" which wasn't a big deal to me, but if you're looking for pristine walls/ceilings/carpeting/tile/etc, I'd look elsewhere. E Hennepin Ave can be pretty noisy as well, but I got used to it after only a week or two. Also, it's very close to a lot of student housing, so around the time school starts in the fall and nice weather weekends can bring some rowdy late night revelers in the neighborhood. Senior move-out in August/September turns the neighborhood into a dumping ground of cast-off furniture and such, but it's great for dumpster diving! All in all, I would absolutely live there again - but only if I had a unit on the top floor.
