After renting in the North Loop we decided it was time to invest to buy a place and become first time purchasers of a condo.

We choose The Legacy for Location, Amenities and Layout Options.  Our favorite amenities include the rooftop and the pool. We are excited to not only be a part of a community but it s an investment for our future. What we like about condo living is the HOA services such as lawn care and snow removal.  Meeting people and the location.

We recommend to our friends, co-workers and family The Legacy as a choose to live. The staff has been good.  At times very busy, assuming it is because of the volume of new tenants and closings.

The Legacy: Chosen for our place to call home.

We have lived in a condo before in Pittsburgh and Minneapolis and chose The Legacy for the location, reputation of the developer, and the ability to do our own selections rather then update an older unit.

The things we enjoy best are the Location, The Quality and Amenities, as we find them to add value.

The best things about condo living is no maintenance, ease of living and you don’t over-accumulate “stuff.”

The staff was fabulous to work with and we look forward to the last 25% selling out.

The Legacy isn’t just great on the inside. It’s also located in downtown’s most desirable neighborhood. Mill City has the Guthrie Theater, Gold Medal Park, ready access to miles of biking and walking trails along the Mississippi River, and much, much more. I knew all of that when I moved in. What I didn’t know is that it’s only a short walk from The Legacy to the University of Minnesota, which is great for those, like me, who want to continue learning in retirement.

I’m excited to be living at The Legacy and looking forward to getting to know, and building a community with, all of my new neighbors.

After years of considering a downtown move and choosing the Legacy AND learning of the builder and developer’s reputation, we feel very fortunate!  The process from beginning to end was well thought out.  Each and every vendor was accommodating, creative and efficient!  We love the results and the location in Downtown East is ideal!

No more gutters, lawn care or shoveling!!!!  Just call me Downtown Dougie D.

We had lived in a townhome in Linden Hills in the mid-90’s, other than that, this is the first time for a condo.

We decided on The Legacy for several reasons:  ability to customize out unit.  Location, way less congested than other areas of downtown, just a few minutes from 35W or 94.  We felt construction was extremely solid and well done.

We’d recommend The Legacy to anyone looking for this style of living.  The sales staff has been extremely helpful.  They would meet us to show us unit progress.  Sales staff worked with us to understand the building and how it works and is laid out.

This is my first experience owning a condo, and I appreciate the amenities in The Legacy, the parking garage is large and well lit, the location of the building in downtown plus it is less maintenance than a house.

I find value in the building and enjoy the hottub, game room and pet amenities, but all of the amenities are great!

The Legacy is our first condo.  We moved from  a large home on 2 acres and find we don’t miss the responsibility and work required.  It’s been liberating to downsize.  We enjoy the walkable neighborhood and distance to shopping, restaurants and entertainment. We love the large windows in our condo and all the amenities The Legacy offers.  The Legacy has a very diverse group of residents and it’s been fun getting to know them.  We’re watching prices rise downtown and feel fortunate to be part of the rising tide.  We feel we’ve made an excellent investment.  Everyone was responsive and very pleasant to work with!

Cheryl

This is the first time we have lived in a condo and chose The Legacy because of the reputation of the developer for building high quality buildings.  We enjoy the design of our living space, the community of residence and the proximity to so much of downtown without being in the center of downtown.

The best things we like are friendly residents and living in a smaller space with freedom from chores of owning a house.  The amenities add a great value, and we appreciate the fitness center and weight room, large community room and game room.

The sales staff was very helpful in answering our many questions and we would recommend to out family, friends and co-workers.

We love our home.  Our friends love our place.  We have been able to entertain like we haven’t done for almost 3 years–makes us so happy.  And Dewi loves all his new furr friends.  Management does a great job keeping the building nice, staffing the desk and shoveling.  We are happy campers!

Anne

After living in condos in Minnetonka and Golden Valley, from the very start of our home purchases, we knew we wanted to be close into the City and so we chose first ring suburbs.  Living near the action, bike trails, and museums has always been very important to us.  We chose LEGACY because it was both the ideal location and timing for us.  After walking many miles and evey years in the Mill City District (MCD), we dreamed of it being our home someday.  Most things we did for exercise and entertainment ended up being downtown and the MCD had the best of all worlds to us – the green spaces of the suburbs, the paths and water of the Chain of Lakes and the culture and action of downtown

Steve and Kimberly

We love the location of The Legacy.  We are on the river and can see all the bridges.  We are just steps away from Gold Medal Park for our dog.  We are inches away from The Guthrie and very close to The Vikings Stadium, restaurants, University of MN and many downtown happenings.

The specific location of The Legacy!  The Legacy puts us downtown, but allows us privacy too!  We had many friends say they were so surprised as to how quiet and peaceful our building and unit were when they got here.  I think people expect a lot of noise and craziness, but instead our guests have been so complimentary about how private it feels and how close we are to EVERYTHING!

This is the first fall in 20 years we haven’t cleaned gutters/hauled patio furniture o had to prepare for snow plowing.  It has allowed us to slip to a new Restaurant, watch the fans pour into The Viking Stadium or explore a new corner of Minneapolis we would never have been able to see if we were busy winterizing our home.

We are much close to action – food venues, sport venues, arts, university activities – the list goes on with so much to do.  Our two daughters are away at college and love the idea of being downtown now when they are in Minneapolis.

My husband and I moved downtown 11 years ago and bought a loft in Bridgewater.  We had spent the previous 25 years in a huge house and there were many surprises about loft living, but we adjusted quickly.  Our plans were to live in our Bridgewater home forever.

After 10 years at Bridgewater, we learned about The Legacy.  Our experience living in a Shamrock building was outstanding.  We had come to know and appreciate Jim Stanton and the quality of his buildings.  Our unit at the Bridgewater sold after 1 showing and for an amount we never dreamed we could get.

Our adventure at The Legacy began while we lived at the Encore.  Working with each of the contractors was fun and easy.  Everything we wanted was quickly and seamlessly integrated into our plan.  The Legacy is a beaufiful building and our unit is everything we wanted.  We appreciate the quiet of our unit and the privacy of living in this huge building.  With every building Jim built, there were things he learned and improved on.  There are many more elevators at The Legacy and the community spaces are more versatile.

Claudia

The number one thing we like best about The Legacy is it’s location, the Mill City District, being near the farmers market and the Guthrie, not to mention The Stone Arch Bridge and the U of M.  Of course, there’s the beautiful Mississippi as well with ruins to explore and trails along the way.

We also like the Legacy being on the bookend of town so we are connected to the action but it is so quiet and one does not need to drive through downtown to access it.

We haven’t lived in one of the developer’s past 9 buildings, but have been in all of them and we think we got the best when we purchased in The Legacy

Steve and Kimberly

We love living downtown.  We have easy access to everything!  Also – if you work downtown – you’re that much close and commuting is pretty painless.  The sales team was helpful and responsive and it was a pleasure working with them.   The whole process was pretty fluid.  With it being our first experience buyer a home, a little more education would have been helpful.  I would recommend condo living for the rest of my life!

Danny and Adriana

We find loads of value in our Legacy unit.  The association does a terrific job handling all the covered items in our HOA.  Included are a great cable/high speed internet package, heating, garbage and recycling disposal, water, gas lines to the deck for the grill.

We were able to drop our gym membership because of the fabulous workout room and weight room at The Legacy.  The pool and hot tub and sauna are included in the HOA fees and maintained for us.  Legacy has extremely affordable HOA monthly dues, adding to the affordability.

We are pleased with our decision to live at The Legacy.
