I DO NOT KNOW IF YOU CAN ASK FOR
SOMETHING, BUT I DID.
AS GRAND
RAPIDS GROWS AND
CHANGES, THE NUMBER OF PEOPLE
MOVING INTO URBAN NEIGHBORHOODS
HAS INCREASED.
PEOPLE ARE MOVING INTO
NEIGHBORHOODS THAT HAVE A GREAT
SENSE OF COMMUNITY, STEPS AWAY
FROM FANTASTIC RESTAURANTS AND
BREWERIES.
AND AWAY FROM VENUES THAT HAVE
WORLD-CLASS ENTERTAINMENT.
THE BUILDING HAS KIND OF
CHARACTER.
IT INCLUDES LIVING SPACES THAT
EXAMPLE OF I WENT DOWNTOWN
LIVING IS ALL ABOUT.
-- EXAMPLE OF
WHAT DOWNTOWN
LIVING IS ALL ABOUT.
♪
GRAND RAPIDS HAS
A OF COOL
NEIBORHOODS YOU CAN'T LIVE IN.
ONE OF THEM IS DOWNTOWN -- YOU
CAN LIVE IN.
ONE OF THEM IS DOWNTOWN RIGHT IN
THE MIDDLE OF GRAND RAPIDS RIGHT
NEAR THE GRAND RAPIDS BREWING
COMPANY.

WE ARE HERE WITH MONICA FROM
616 LOFTS.
THIS IS REALLY A COOL DOWNTOWN
BUILDING AND SPACE.
THANK YOU.
THIS IS ONE OF THE FIRST
PROJECTS WE DID.
THIS WAS THE SECOND OUT OF SEVEN
BUILDINGS THAT WE HAVE.
WE HAVE APARTMENT LOFTS
IN
DOWNTOWN GRAND RAPIDS AND IN
NEARBY NEIBORHOODS.
WE WERE EXCITED TO BRING PEOPLE
IN WHO WANT TO BE -- YOU WANT
THE OPPORTUNITY TO LIVE DOWNTOWN
WHEN AT THE TIMWAS NOT A LOT
OF OPTIONS.
WE ARE EXCITED TO BRING UNITS
HERE RIGHT INTO THE HEART OF
DOWNTOWN, AND OFFER A GREAT
CHOICE FOR PEOPLE WHO WANT TO
LIVE IN DOWNTOWN AND CLOSE BY
THE ARENA AND SO MANY
RESTAURANTS AND ACTIVITIES
DOWNTOWN.
THIS HAS BEEN A REALLY FUN
OJECT FOR US.
616 LOFTS HAS
BEEN ABLE TO
BREAE NEW LIFE INTO THIS
BUILDING.
THERE ARE A WHOLE GROUP OF
PEOPLE HERE WHO REALLY WANT TO
BE PART OF THE ACTION.
WE HAVE REALLY ENJOYED SEEING
SUCH A VARIETY OF PEOPLE COME IN
AND WANT TO DISCOVER WHAT IT IS
LIKE TO LIVE DOWNTOWN.
HOPEFULLY, WE WANT TO OFFER
GREAT SPACE AND CONNECTION.
PEOPLE CAN CONNECT WITH ONE
ANOTHER AND THEIR COMMUNITY.
SO, WHAT IS RIGHT OUTSIDE YOUR
FRONT DOOR?
WHAT OPPORTUNITIES ARE OUT
THERE?
THAT IS WHAT WE SPEND A LOT OF
TIME WORKING WITH OUR RESIDENTS
ON.
PEOPLE DO DIFFERENT, CREATIVE
THINGS WITH THEIR APARTMENTS.
LET'S TALK ABOUT THOSE
POSSIBILITIES.
WE WERE VERY EXCITED TO
PARTNER WITH THE BUILDING AND
OTHER WORKERS -- PARTNERS.
IT IS BEEN A GREAT PARTNERSHIP
WITH THEM FOR SEVERAL YEARS NOW.
IT IS A GREAT BUILDING WITH A
SIMPLE PAINT SCHEME, GREAT
CABINETRY, AND
THAT GOES WITH A
LOT OF THESE OLD, CLASSIC
BUILDINGS.
WE DID A SORT OF BACHELOR THEME.
WE HAVE ADDED A LOT OF WARM WO
OD TO CREATE AN ENVIRONMENT THAT
IS WARM, INVITING, AND OPEN.
WE CAN DO ANYTHING
FOR THE
UNIT
WE CAN MAKE THEM THEME
D FOR
WHATEV KIND OF SPACE THE
CLIENT WOULD LIKE.
I KNOW IT IS IMPORTANT FOR
616 LOFTS TO REALLY PARTNER WITH
A LOT OF LOCAL BUSINESSES AND
CREATE THOSE CONNECTIONS.
YES, A LOT
OF THE RESIDENTS
WHO MOVE IN WITH US ARE COMING
FROM OUTSIDE THE AREA.
WHAT WE WANT TO DO IS TO THEM
CONNECTED TO NOT ONLY THEIR
NEIGHBORS RIGHT OUTSIDE THEIR
OWN DOOR, BUT ALSO TO ALL THE
GREAT THINGS THAT ARE OUT HERE.
WE HAVE SOMETHING CALLED A 616
PASS THAT WE PROVIDE TO ALL OF
OUR RESIDENTS.
IT GIVES BEEN CONNECTIONS IN THE
COMMUNITY BY INTRODUCING THEM TO
LOCAL BUSINESSES THAT YOU MAY
NOT KNOW.
IT IS A CHANCE TO GIVE THEM
OPPORTUNITIES, AND WE ARE IN
JUST TO GET CONNECTED.
OUR RESIDENTS WANT A SPACE
DESIGNED FOR THEM.
THEY WANTED FURNITURE THAT FIT
THEIR NEEDS.
A LOT OF TIMES, WITH THE
BUILDINGS WE END UP WITH AND
THEIR RENOVATIONS, WE END UP
WITH SOME UNIQUE SPACES THAT
MEET A SPECIAL CHALLENGE FOR
SOMEONE TRYING TO FIGURE OUT HOW
TO PUT THE RIGHT PIECES INTO
THIS SPACE.
WE ARE IN THE BUILDING RIGHT
NOW IN DOWNTOWN GRAND RAPIDS.
THERE ARE
A LOT OF DIFFERENT
NEIGHBORHOODS WITH DIFFERENT
PERSONALITIES.
WHAT IS GREAT ABOUT THAT IS
THAT PEOPLE HAVE A LOT OF
DIFFERENT DESIRES.
IF PEOPLE WANT TO BE RIGHT IN
THE HEART OF DOWNTOWN, NEXT TO
THE ARENA, IN THE MIDDLE OF THE
ACTION.
OTHER PEOPLE REALLY WANT THAT
URBAN FEEL BUT MORE OF A
NEIGHBORHOOD.
SO, MAYBE A LITTLE BIT OUTSIDE
OF THE CENTER CITY.
THAT IS EXCITING.
COMMUNITY IS ESSENTIAL TO WHAT
YOU ARE CREATING.
YES, WE THINK IT IS A VERY
BIG DEAL FOR US.
WE LIVE IN AN AGE WHERE PEOPLE
ARE VERY MUCH TIED TO THEIR
PHONES AND THINGS RIGHT IN FRONT
OF THEIR FACES.
WE WANT PEOPLE TO LOOK
UP FROM
THEIR PHONES FOR A MINUTE, SEE
WHAT IS OUT THERE, AND
MAKE SOME
UNIQUE CONNECTIONS WITH PEOPLE
WHO YOU MAY NOT HAVE MET IN THE
PAST.
I THINK ONE OF THE UNIQUE THINGS
ABOUT GRAND RAPIDS IS THAT
PEOPLE HERE REALLY LOVE TO BE
INVOLVED.
WE LIKE TO INFORM OUR RESIDENTS
ABOUT HOW TO GET INVOLVED IN THE
COMMUNITY.
THANK YOU FOR LETTING US IN
TO CHECK IT OUT.
ABSOLUTELY.
BEAUTIFUL.
I JUST LOVE THAT.
IF YOU LOVE FOOD AND
ENTERTAINMENT, THIS BUILDING IS
PERFECT FOR YOU.
THE AVENUE IT IS ON IS A
DOWNTOWN HOTSPOT.
IT IS ONE OF THE MOST -- IT HAS
SOME OF THE MOST FAMOUS AND
POPULAR RESTAURANT LIKE LUNA
RIGHT THERE.
IT IS ALL RIGHT BY THE ARENA.
IT IS IN THE ARENA DISTRICT.
IT IS A GREAT SPOT.
I USE TO LIVE ABOUT A BLOCK
THERE, AND I LOVED THE LOCATION.
IT IS PERFECT.
YOU CAN WALK TO JUST ABOUT
ANYTHING.
THAT 616 LOFTS HAS WITH PLACES
YOU CAN RENT.
JUST HEAD TO 616LOFTS
.COM TO
CHECK OUT THEIBUILDINGS AND
THE UNIQUE GRAND RAPIDS
COMMUNITIES THEY ARE IN.
SOME OF THE UNIQUE SERVICES THEY
HAVE TO OFFER.
I THINK THE LOCATION IS AMAZING.
TO BE DOWNTOWN DURING
SOME OF
THOSE REALLY COOL EVENTS DURING
THE SPRG AND SUMMER MONTHS, IT
WOULD BE FANTASTIC.
YES, THEY HAVE GREAT
LOCATIONS WHERE THEIR BUILDINGS
ARE.
THERE'S ANOTHER ONE DOWNTOWN
THAT IS CLOSE TO THAT NEW THE
CHILDREN'S MUSEUM.
THEY ALSO HAVE ONE ON THE WEST
SIDE WHERE THAT AMAZING GROWTH
IS TAKING PLACE JUST DOWN THE
STREET FROM NEW ALAN MARIE A LOT
OF GREAT BUSINESSES -- NEW ALAN
BREWERY AND A LOT OF GREAT
BUSINESSES THAT ARE RELOCATING
TO THERE.
THEY ARE OFFERING A SPACE FOR
RESIDENTS WHO WANT THAT DOWNTOWN
EXPERIENCE AND THAT NEIGHBORHOOD
EXPERIENCE.
THEY EVEN GIVE OUT THESE LITTLE
CARDS TO RESIDENTS THAT SAY YOU
CAN USE THESE CARDS AT LOCAL
BUSINESSES, AND YOU WILL GET
SOME SPECIAL TREATMENT AND
DISCOUNTS WHEN YOU SHOP LOCAL.
THEY ARE MAKING
EFFORTS IN AREAS
YES, LOTS OF PERKS THAT GO
ALONG WITH BEING A RESIDENT
THERE.
WE HAVE A LOT COMING UP IN
THIS HOUR OF "EIGHTWEST."
STAY RIGHT THERE.
WE WILL BE RIGHT BACK.
