Frequently Asked Questions:
1. What is the history of the Molino Street Lofts? Built in the 1920s, the two buildings at 500 and 530 Molino Street originally served as industrial warehouses. They were converted into 91 residential live/work lofts by the Kor Group—the same visionary developers behind the Barker Block. The conversion preserved the raw character of the buildings, leaving the original brick and century-old timber beautifully intact.
2. How do the amenities compare to other Arts District buildings? Unlike Barker Block or Biscuit Company, the Molino Street Lofts intentionally forgo massive resort-style pools and concierges in favor of raw, authentic space. Residents still enjoy beautifully maintained rooftop lounging areas, a fitness center, and secured parking, but with the added benefit of significantly lower monthly HOA dues.
