Nestled in a quiet residential neighborhood between two beautiful parks in the heart of St. Louis Park, Minnesota, Aquila Commons is more than just a place to live—it is a vibrant, maintenance-free senior housing cooperative designed for active adults aged 55 and better. Here, you enjoy the pride and equity of independent homeownership without any of the daily burdens of property maintenance, lawn care, or snow removal. It is a welcoming neighborhood of active, involved peers where your private, beautifully designed one- or two-bedroom home opens up to a deeply connected, resident-led community.

Our unique cooperative model gives you a direct voice in your neighborhood's future through democratic, peer-run committees. Beyond your private balcony, a wealth of exceptional lifestyle amenities awaits—from a high-tech fitness center, indoor car wash bay, and woodworking workshop to our cozy library, community gardens, and a grand Great Room perfect for social gatherings.
