The North Star Wooden Mill Building is in
the area known as the West Side Milling District,
located on the downtown side of Mississippi
River between Fifth and Chicago avenues.
Once known as the North Star Blanket Factory,
the seven-story building along the city's
Mississippi Mile sat unused for nearly 50
years and had deteriorated to the brink of
demolition when Brighton Development recognized
the site's potential for redevelopment. Prior
to construction start, their sales force began
touring prospective buyers through the neglected
site. Despite the condition of the building,
visitors fell in love with the high ceilings,
brickwork and oversize windows looking out
on city life, park trails and the Stone Arch
Bridge.
Today North Star Lofts successfully combines
historic character with contemporary comforts,
including a variety of custom unit interiors
from rustic to modern. Exposed brickwork and
ductwork remain in abundance, echoing the
building's industrial origins. While woodwork
is plentiful, some residents have chosen to
retain concrete floors, which have been buffed
and polished to a high gloss and draped in
oriental carpets.
