MINNEAPOLIS – Transwestern Real Estate Services (TRS) announces Gray Fox Coffee has opened its fourth location in the 601W Companies-owned Dayton’s Project, located at 700 Nicollet Mall. The official public launch will take place on July 18 with a ribbon-cutting ceremony at 10:15 a.m.
The coffee shop occupies the building’s skyway level after six years of vacancy. It is open to both tenants and the public and features coffee, breakfast items, and smoothies. There are also Dayton’s-exclusive menu items, such as The Dayton, a gingerbread-flavored specialty coffee.
“Gray Fox Coffee is thrilled to open our new location at The Dayton’s Project and provide a new amenity to the tenants of the building and surrounding community,” said Chris Bjorling, owner of Gray Fox Coffee. “We pride ourselves on our specialty and unique menu items that offer a modern twist on nostalgic favorites. We could not think of a more perfect place to open our fourth location than a building that is both modern and historic.”
Owned by 601W Companies, The Dayton’s Project is a 1,193,458-square-foot, Class A landmark property, originally built as the Dayton’s department store. The state-of-the-art building includes amenities such as a gym, private lounges, and a rooftop terrace with stunning views of downtown Minneapolis. Its historic features include Art Deco bathrooms, the iconic JB Hudson space, ornate column capitals, and terrazzo flooring. Renovations to the building incorporated sustainable and eco-friendly practices and materials, earning it LEED certification.
