Building the lofts originated with an increased demand for more residential units in Beloit, according to Rob Gerbitz, CEO of Hendricks Commercial Properties.

“Beloit has transformed into an all-encompassing live, work and play destination, and we’re seeing a greater demand for urban housing options,” Gerbitz said in a news release. “We’re proud to provide these upscale residential properties that give residents full access to all the amenities that can be found in downtown Beloit.”
