Mills Properties recently expanded its management portfolio to include Lofts at the Highlands.

Lofts at the Highlands is a 200 unit, 246,612-square-foot community that consists of two five-story buildings with one, two, and three bedroom loft apartments. It’s prime location off Highway 64 on Oakland Avenue, just blocks from the St. Louis Science Center, Forest Park, and Barnes Jewish Hospital, and minutes from Washington University, Fontbonne, Saint Louis University and St. Louis College of Pharmacy, make it an ideal place to live.

In addition to a spectacular location, Lofts at the Highlands boasts outstanding amenities such as open layouts, ten-foot ceilings, sophisticated kitchens, elegant stainless steel appliances, granite counter tops, washers and dryers, security systems, in-building parking, furnished corporate units, a rooftop jacuzzi, and more.

What makes Lofts at the Highlands even more special is that it was built on the site of the St. Louis Arena. The arena, known as “The Checkerdome” from 1977-1983”, and affectionately known by generations of St. Louisans as “The Old Barn,” was demolished on February 27, 1999. The NBA’s St. Louis Hawks won the 1958 NBA Championship there over the Boston Celtics. The Arena is most notable for being the home of the The St. Louis Blues from 1967-1994. The lofts were built on the site in 2006 for $35.7 million.

While Mills is no stranger to new and exciting opportunities, this venture raises the bar. “We are jazzed about the opportunity to manage Lofts at the Highlands,” said Mike Brewer, Vice President of Operations for Mills Properties. “The property itself speaks to an uber-cool lifestyle and we look forward to complementing that with a package of unique experiences that residents can rave about. We not only want people to feel at home; we want give them a place to make memories.”
