I love the organic trash chute, the recyling bins, and the high efficiency washers and toilets. I don’t have to drive anywhere and everything I do or need is right around the corner.

Bikes

a sustainable lifestyle

Sustainable architecture is nothing if it’s not deeply rooted in the surrounding community. Whether it’s the lobby murals by local artists or a takeout brunch from Lucia’s, Solhem celebrates the satisfying connections that come from urban living. 

Solhem’s other sustainable features include:

  • Organic trash disposal
  • Green roofs at terraces
  • Convenient bike storage

  • Passive solar design
  • On-site Hour Car
  • Electric vehicle stalls
  • LED and fluorescent lighting systems
  • Low VOC paints

Sustainable living also means giving back to your community. To date Solhem has donated $83,500 to the Minneapolis Firefighters, local youth groups and local schools.
