Modern web studios don't want fluorescent-lit suburban office parks. They want raw industrial character, fiber that doesn't drop during a client call, and rent that doesn't kill the margins. 644 2nd Street is a 1956 industrial building with the bones to convert beautifully into a creative-studio loft.

Can this space actually feel like a modern agency office?
Absolutely — the industrial shell gives you 12+ ft ceilings, exposed structure, and a footprint that converts beautifully with a creative-class buildout. Think Northeast Minneapolis or Northern Stacks energy, at East Metro pricing.
Is the internet reliable enough for an agency?
T1 fiber is in the building. Most agencies layer in a second business-class fiber connection for redundancy — easy to run via a separate provider.
Can we host clients here without it feeling industrial?
Yes — a 5,000–10,000 SF buildout typically includes a front-of-house lounge, conference, and meeting rooms that read as creative-studio rather than warehouse. The industrial shell is the backdrop, not the experience.
644 2nd Street is subdividable and adaptable. A few other use cases that match the building's bones:
