Introducing The Setting: Unprecedented Luxury Coming to Edina

We're excited to share a significant milestone in Great States Development's journey: The Setting, our first luxury apartment community in Edina, Minnesota. Located at 7200 France Avenue, this 150-unit development represents more than just another project for us—it's our introduction to one of the Twin Cities' most distinguished communities.

A First for the Twin Cities

What makes The Setting truly special is its centerpiece amenity: the Twin Cities' first glass conservatory. This year-round, climate-controlled space is designed as a sanctuary where residents can rest, focus, and find relaxation regardless of Minnesota's changing seasons. It's an amenity we're particularly proud to introduce to the market, offering something genuinely unique in luxury apartment living.

Designed for Modern Living

The Setting reflects our commitment to creating resident-first focused living spaces. Every amenity has been carefully selected to enhance daily experiences while meeting the sophisticated needs of Edina residents.

Our fitness enthusiasts will appreciate the professional-grade fitness center, complete with locker rooms, sauna, and cold plunge facilities. For families, the multi-age recreational room offers entertainment options and a full sports simulator that both children and adults can enjoy together.

The community spaces are equally impressive. Versatile gathering areas accommodate both intimate meetings and larger events, while the entertainment great room provides private dining and event space. Outside, residents can enjoy an expansive deck with grills, fire pits, and comfortable seating areas, plus a three-season pool and spa.

Thoughtful Conveniences

We understand that luxury living extends beyond beautiful spaces to include practical conveniences. The Setting will feature three levels of conditioned, structured parking with over 50 guest spaces, ensuring residents and their visitors always have a place to park. EV charging stations will be available for those looking to make sustainable transportation choices.

Throughout the property, residents will experience lush greenery and curated local art, creating an atmosphere that celebrates both luxury and community. Direct access to bike and walking trails, including a future connection to the Nine Mile Creek Regional Trail across France Avenue, connects residents to Edina's outdoor lifestyle.

Why Edina?

Choosing Edina for our first project in this market was an easy decision. The community is known throughout the region for its exceptional standard of living, making it the perfect match for our development philosophy. As Partner Jon Casper noted, "This project represents our commitment to creating resident-first focused living spaces that enhance daily experiences while honoring the high standards that Edina is known for throughout the region."

Looking Ahead

Residents are expected to move in during Summer 2027. While that may seem far away, we believe the wait will be worth it as we carefully craft every detail to meet our high standards.

The Setting marks an exciting expansion for Great States Development as we bring our proven expertise in luxury multi-family development from across Montana, South Dakota, and Minnesota to this exceptional Edina location. We're honored to contribute to this outstanding community and look forward to welcoming our first residents in 2027.
