High rise apts & advice

Hello Moving to Mpls!
I was born & raised there but left in 2006. I’m moving back before the end of this year. New job new life, old hometown. In my 20s & 30s I lived in vintage apartments and brownstones in Uptown, the Wedge and Northeast.
I’d like to try living in a modern, contemporary high rise RENTAL apartment downtown or near downtown. I’ve toured a few of them and I’m intrigued. Wondering if anyone here has experience with any of them (there’s so many - the market seems saturated) and can share info - what’s it like, what to watch out for, what’s amazing, what’s not. Any feedback about any specific buildings would be cool. Real facts from anyone with lived experience would be awesome.

I’m a solo female of color, educator, in my 50s. No pets/kids. Make decent money but not rich. Need covered/garage/secure parking. Would love laundry in unit, some amenities, and a chill, adult professional environment that’s safe and well managed. Looking to try this for at least a year.

NOT interested in buying or a discussion on buying vs. renting; not interested in St. Paul; not interested in the suburbs.

Thanks in advance for any insights. I’m excited and terrified, lol!!!
