Chris Sherman says that in the current market, his challenge is to find ways to deliver to an undersupplied housing market. As president of development company Sherman Associates, his current projects include Harmonia (at the site of the former Wells Fargo operations center in downtown Minneapolis), a development that includes a 10-story mixed-income mid-rise apartment building, a 20-plus-story market-rate high-rise apartment building, and 25-plus-story mixed-use high-rise. “Regardless of whether it’s an office building or it’s housing, it’s really finding what is the new, highest, and best use for the long term,” Sherman says.
