This Loft Life is sponsored by Pendar Properties.
Think of it like downtown living at a whole new level.
That’s what residents will experience when they begin moving into the newest lofts opening this spring at Cherapa Place.
The Clark, opening May 1, and The Dakota, opening July 15, will offer an unparalleled lifestyle surrounding you with the best of urban living and outstanding amenities.
“We want this to become a community within downtown, where residents have so many opportunities without ever leaving home,” said Anne Haber, co-developer of Cherapa Place and co-owner of Pendar Properties, which also manages The Carpenter Building and Railyard Flats.
“The Clark and The Dakota represent an opportunity to become the first to live in a place we envision becoming an incredibly in-demand place.”
Residents who move into The Clark and The Dakota will enjoy an upscale, immersive, wellness-focused lifestyle that goes far beyond the lofts themselves.
Here’s an inside look at what you’ll experience.
Exceptional living space
Let’s start with the lofts themselves.
Both The Clark and The Dakota use a mass-timber style of construction, which surrounds you with warmth, quiet and sustainability.
Choose from studio lofts through two bedrooms with a den at The Clark and studios through three bedrooms at The Dakota.

“We have a huge range of sizes and floor plans, with unbelievable river and urban views,” property manager Abby Johnson said. “Personal patio spaces allow you to take full advantage of the downtown setting, and the amenity packages are exceptional.”
Finishes vary by loft, but designs include a drop-zone entry, full-size upscale appliances, walk-in and organized closet systems, soft-close cabinetry and walk-in tile showers.
“These are just as well appointed as many luxury homes,” Johnson said. “You’ll find extras like quartz backsplash, wine fridges and heated tile bathroom floors in certain lofts as well.”

Community features
Leave the loft behind, and get to know your neighbors at a variety of enjoyable community spaces between both loft buildings.
Community rooms and rooftop patios offer bonus living and dining spaces, with a fire pit, grill and outdoor games.
“Plus, your pets will love it here,” Johnson said. “They have access to rooftop relief areas, a dog run, a dog washing station and easy access to the bike trail for walks.”
Both The Clark and The Dakota open to central Cherapa Place Plaza, which offers additional seating and entertainment.
“We anticipate hosting lots of fun special events here as we have already within the Cherapa Place interconnect,” Haber said. “Our residents already have enjoyed wine socials, art shows and special access to our businesses, and we see that only growing.”
All-inclusive services
Residents at The Clark and The Dakota will enjoy full advantage of the exceptional Pendar Properties management team.
“We provide package delivery and management, 24-hour emergency maintenance and extras along the way to make loft living even more enjoyable,” Johnson said.
“Our residents can even opt for concierge services to handle even more of your daily-living needs.”
Rents also include trash and recycling, plus a lifestyle fee covers all utilities, excluding internet and cable. Heated underground parking is available, along with EV chargers.
“And to help you get settled in your new place, we’ve gone away from the traditional security deposit,” Johnson said.
State-of-the-art fitness
Cherapa Place residents are going to love the complete wellness experience offered by SiSU Fit, which is modeled after outstanding wellness centers on the West Coast.
At SiSU, which is located on the main floor of The Dakota, you’ll find a premier fitness studio meant to serve as a hub for not only fitness but also nutrition, personal training and overall wellness.
“We understand that people are busy but also that they feel it’s important to take care of their body along with their mental and emotional health,” Haber said. “SiSU is going to be a place that helps you achieve that, and for our residents, they can access it without ever leaving home.”
SiSU memberships will be available to those who live and work at Cherapa Place as well as the general public. Along with a digitally focused workout approach, you’ll find state-of-the-art equipment in a beautifully designed studio that includes a stunning built-in sauna.
Exciting new neighbors
Stay tuned for more announcements soon as future Cherapa Place residents will find out which businesses are going to become their first-floor neighbors.
“We can’t wait to share what we’re going to be able to offer from a retail and dining perspective,” Haber said. “Plus, we’re excited for the early success of iv&co, which opened in The Bancorp Building and further complements the holistic, natural, wellness focus of the development.”
