Big News at 9th Street Center!  We’re thrilled to announce that Planet Fitness is opening a brand-new 19,500-SF gym at 575 Ninth St. SE this September! This addition will bring an affordable (and judgment-free!) fitness option to Northeast Minneapolis, an area that continues to thrive with new residents, businesses and community amenities. Planet Fitness will not only provide a welcoming place to work out, but also strengthen the neighborhood’s growing mix of services, health-focused options, and everyday conveniences that make it such a great place to live, work and play. 9th Street Center is now nearly fully occupied and is home to a dynamic mix of tenants including Minneapolis Cider, MinnPost, Top Ten Liquors HQ, and Midwest Climbing Academy, LLC. Planet Fitness is the latest example of how the center continues to evolve to meet community needs and enhance the Northeast experience. As Managing Partner Scott Tankenoff puts it: "It’s going to further infuse the idea that you’ve got more service, good amenity, people already want to live there…I think this leads to more service options." We couldn’t be more excited to welcome Planet Fitness to the Hillcrest family and to Northeast Minneapolis. 💪 A big thank you to the Minneapolis/St. Paul Business Journal (MSPBJ) for covering the story.

Sometimes the best leasing decisions are the ones that bring people together—over great drinks, good food, and a little friendly competition. For Danny Gollin, one of Hillcrest’s development associates, that place is Minneapolis Cider Company, a tenant that matches his relaxed-yet-active style. With a refreshingly crisp Blueberry Borealis Hard Cider in one hand and a Bacon & Brie Crepe in front of him, Danny sums it up: “The blueberry perfectly complements the crepe… I’ve never actually had a crepe before. It’s really good!” For Minneapolis Cider, their space at Hillcrest’s 9th Street Center has been the perfect match for their unique mix of production, hospitality and recreation. Here’s why: ✅ Prime Location – High visibility near the University of Minnesota draws a steady stream of students, locals and visitors. ✅ Flexible Space – Clear height and column-free floor plan make room for everything from cider production to full-sized pickleball courts. ✅ Room to Grow – Since moving in more than five years ago, they’ve nearly doubled in size and even added an event center. With its cool, comfortable atmosphere, rotating cider lineup, crepes, and pickleball, Minneapolis Cider has created a space where people can unwind. Exactly the kind of vibrant, community-centered success story we love at Hillcrest Development.

At Hillcrest Development, LLLP, we believe in building more than great commercial spaces, we’re also proud to help grow the next generation of real estate leaders. This summer, we were thrilled to welcome Britta Dueholm and Thomas Liechty to our internship program. Their curiosity, enthusiasm and drive brought fresh perspectives to our work and reaffirmed why investing in people is just as important as investing in properties. Britta returns to her senior year at University of Wisconsin-Madison studying Economics and Business. Thomas returns to his junior at the University of St. Thomas, double majoring in Real Estate and Marketing. Throughout the summer, they explored every aspect of our work, from stormwater systems and sustainability strategies to site plans, showings and tenant relations. They joined our teams on construction walk-thrus, property tours and budgeting sessions, and even gained valuable design insight thanks to the generous teams at Cushing Terrell and Tanek, who opened their doors for shadowing opportunities. To Britta and Thomas, thank you for your contributions, and for letting Hillcrest be part of your journey. We can’t wait to see what the future holds for you both! . . . . . #HillcrestDevelopment #InternSpotlight #FutureLeaders #CommercialRealEstate #CRECareers #MentorshipMatters #NextGeneration #PropertyDevelopment #RealEstateInternship #TwinCitiesRealEstate #DesignMatters #CushingTerrell #TanekDesign
