One University Place 1300 Melrose Ave., University Heights 1-4 bedroom condominiums 981-2,264 square feet Starting at $315,000 www.oneuniversityplace.com One University Place stands out for its energy-efficient and sustainable condominiums next to wooded ravines and rolling green space, and its unmatched proximity to the University of Iowa campus, UI Hospitals and Clinics and Kinnick Stadium. The two buildings and grounds designed by Neumann Monson Architects feature striking surroundings, sophisticated finishes and secure underground parking. Set back from Melrose Avenue by a wide, tree-lined promenade, the recently completed south building’s two upper floors feature 24 condominiums. The building is welcoming its first commercial tenant, Maggie’s Farm Wood-Fired Pizza, which is set to open May 1. The five-story north building, scheduled to be complete by December, will have 80 condominiums. Its concierge services, including shuttle service, will benefit both buildings. Sustainability and comfort has also been a focus for One University Place’s design, with solar panels, high-end sound insulation and LED lighting. Smulekoff’s 97 Third Ave. SE, Cedar Rapids Studio & 1 bedroom apartments 600-950 square feet $650-$750/month www.aspectinc.net The historic Smulekoff’s department store building on the banks of the Cedar River is restored and ready for its next life as the Corridor’s first “microaparment” development. Featuring 16 efficiency and 16 one-bedroom apartments across two floors, the building has been tailor-made for young professionals looking to live in the middle of the action. The apartments feature a variety of fully restored historic elements, including exposed wood timbers, wood floors and exposed brick on the walls, and many of the units offer stunning bird’s-eye views of the adjacent Cedar River. Amenities include in-unit washers and dryers, available indoor parking, and a coffee shop and wine lounge on the ground floor, making it ideal for those looking to stay close to home. “I have a lot of people calling me about this one,” said developer Steve Emerson. “You get some people who want a really big one bedroom, or who want the smaller efficiency [unit] because it’s looking over the river.” Riverview West 629 S. Riverside Drive, Iowa City 1-3 bedroom apartments 686-1,462 square feet $762-$2,080/month www.hpmic.com As redevelopment brings new amenities to Riverside Drive in Iowa City, the new Riverview West apartments provide a wide range of affordable living options with a luxury feel. Riverview West opened in the fall of 2016, one of the first living options in the area with rooftop solar power. It was developed by Riverview West LLC, a partnership of Kevin Hanick and Kineret Zabner. Mr. Hanick believes the location within walking distance of the University of Iowa campus will appeal to a range of renters. The location also brings plenty of convenience for socializing and dining, with a new Bruegger’s Bagel Bakery across Riverside Drive, and a new Kum & Go Marketplace next door. Apartments include upscale touches, such as quartz countertops, balconies and stainless steel appliances. Among the shared amenities are a landscaped courtyard with picnic tables, elevators and trash chutes on each floor for convenient waste disposal. Mr. Hanick said Riverview West plans to utilize its large lobbies with abundant natural light to offer wellness options. Among those being considered are yoga classes, table tennis tables and exercise equipment. 12 LUREOF THE CITY
