River Park Lofts | Historic Lowertown, St. Paul
Located in the heart of Downtown St. Paul’s Lowertown Historic District, River Park Lofts offers a rare blend of historic character and modern sophistication. Originally constructed in 1905 for the George Sommers Co., this seven-story Classical Revival warehouse—designed by noted architect J. Walter Stevens—was transformed into distinctive condominiums in 2006.
Lowertown, once the “lower landing” on the Mississippi River and the first port of access to the Twin Cities, has evolved into one of St. Paul’s most vibrant neighborhoods. Just steps from Mears Park, residents enjoy year-round music, festivals, a welcoming dog park, and dozens of nearby restaurants, cafes, and entertainment venues. The Farmer’s Market, CHS Field (home of the Saints), Union Depot, light rail, riverfront trails, and Xcel Energy Center are all within easy reach. The building is also connected to the skyway system for convenient access throughout downtown.
This exceptional 3-bedroom, 3-bath residence spans nearly 2,900 square feet and was thoughtfully created by combining two units. The result is a spacious, one-of-a-kind home featuring soaring ceilings, massive exposed beams, original brick walls, and a striking mix of industrial and contemporary materials.
The chef’s kitchen is a showstopper—featuring expansive cabinetry with double pantries, Carrara marble countertops, a Gaggenau cooktop, and dacor proofing drawer for break making, Thermador range, and a full-size Sub-Zero refrigerator. Designer lighting and Maestro dimmer switches create effortless ambiance. Two private balconies, a former elevator shaft turned architectural feature, and impeccable finishes throughout elevate this home above the rest.
Recent updates include a new roof (January 2025), fully paid for by the seller. Parking includes two stalls—one in the pristine, heated garage and another in the connected ramp.
Experience the perfect combination of history, luxury, and downtown convenience at River Park Lofts.
