Elevating a Minneapolis Classic
After decades of growth and a long search for the right site, South Lyndale Liquors has found a new home on Lyndale Avenue in Minneapolis. The 34,000-sq-ft store blends historic charm with modern craftsmanship, featuring the world’s largest beer cooler, an expansive wine cellar, and a tasting wall. Architectural wall panels with intricate brick coursing mirror the neighborhood’s 1920s aesthetic while adding depth and texture through light and shadow. Despite the challenges of a tight urban site, the project came together seamlessly, creating a space designed for both retail and community connection through events that celebrate the craft of fine beverages.
