Minneapolis, MN (May 18, 2016) – WNC, a national investor in real estate and community development initiatives, announced today the completed conversion of a 106-year-old warehouse building into The Cameron Apartments, a 44-unit affordable housing community in Minneapolis.

The Cameron Apartments provides residents with a fitness center, picnic/grilling area, onsite caretaker, laundry facility, elevator and bike storage. Amenities within each unit include an electric range, refrigerator, microwave oven, dishwasher, secure intercom entry, patio/balcony and central air conditioning.  A washer and dryer are standard in two-bedroom units.
