About Leijona Apartments

Head Sheriff's Office - Leijona sets a new bar for urban living in Duluth. Located in the center of downtown, Leijona offers 33 newly redeveloped boutique apartment units, with brand new fixtures in a restored historic building. Formerly the St.… Louis County Jail, Leijona has been redeveloped to recreate this iconic local landmark, opening soon to its very first new residents.

In the heart of downtown Duluth, Leijona offers perfect access to work, play, and downtown living. Walking distance to Lake Superior, and just steps away from entertainment, employment, and retail options, Leijona offers you an oasis in the center of it all.

This Studio unit features a large open living area, restored terrazzo floors and plaster, historic door and entry, full shower/tub in the bathroom, and convenient access to mail, elevator and historic lobby. The apartment receives plenty of natural light through massive oversized windows and maintains its history through tastefully left features such as a row of jail bars at the bottom of the windows.
