About Borealis Apartments

Our inspiration for Borealis is what came before: The historic Great Northern Railway, bound for Tacoma, Washington had its starting point here in the North Loop. An enormous subterranean stone tunnel lies under the site, carrying Basset Creek to the... More

★★★★★ 5.0 Tanvi Sankar · Jan 2026

I’ve really enjoyed living at Borealis. The unit and amenities are spacious and modern and the location is quiet yet close to walking paths and all the North Loop hotspots. The rooftop views and herb garden are a nice bonus, and the resident events and monthly newsletter really help cultivate that sense of community that you don’t often get in apartment buildings :) The management team is the best part! They’re kind, attentive, and truly care about residents. Shoutout to Alex, who gave us such a wonderful initial tour that we signed on the spot, and Croy and Ben, who have been so helpful with any ongoing requests and are lovely to chat with. I can’t recommend Borealis and Solhem enough!

I love living at Borealis. The people and management are friendly, the building is clean, and the rooftop view is incredible. The location is nice and quiet, and it’s just a short walk to Washington Ave and all the great restaurants and shops. It’s also very pet friendly, which makes it even better. They recently added a new coffee machine in the lobby, which is such a nice touch. It’s a great place to live. Highly recommend!

My husband and I lived at Borealis for two years, and we would still be living there if we hadn't moved to Portland, Maine, for my husband's job. We are currently staying at a "high-end" apartment in downtown Portland, and to say that we miss Borealis and the management team there is an understatement. Below, I’ll break down the different aspects that made living at Borealis the best experience ever. **Management/Staff:** When we first moved in, the management team included Alex, Macie, Marcus, and Kris. As we entered our second year, new team members joined: Megan, Croy, Katti and Amber, alongside Marcus and Kris. We can’t say enough good things about each and every person. Any questions, requests for maintenance, or other concerns were handled promptly and efficiently. They all went abo

★★★★★ 5.0 Patrick StClair · May 2025

Just relocated from California, and I have to say—The Borealis Apartments have set a new standard for me. This is by far the cleanest, quietest, and best-maintained complex I’ve ever lived in. The staff is exceptional—professional, friendly, and truly invested in making residents feel at home. The maintenance team is prompt and incredibly skilled, easily the best I’ve encountered. The location couldn’t be more ideal, and the amenities offered at this price point are simply unmatched. From start to finish, the entire move-in process was seamless, thanks to the incredible front office team! My highest recommendation by far.

★★★★★ 5.0 Yiqun Liu · Jun 2024

I lived in Borealis for 2 years and had an amazing experience. From the moment I moved in, I felt right at home thanks to the incredibly friendly and helpful staff (Jeanne, Alex, Monica and all other staffs). They always went above and beyond to ensure residents were happy and comfortable. One of the highlights of living here was many fun neighbor-engaging events organized by the management team. Now that I look back, I realize how important these events are in helping build a sense of belongings for someone who moved to Minnesota without knowing anyone. I also enjoyed reading the Borealis monthly newsletter and used that as a "local tour guide" to explore events with friends. Borealis' location is absolutely fantastic! 5 minutes walk to the Mississippi River, within 10 minutes drive to
