Where the City Meets the Sky

What keeps people in Boise? In part, it is the proximity to nature even within the city—an approachable downtown that overlooks a river, provides easy access to hiking trails, and feels, somehow, a little bit remote. 

What keeps people in Boise? In part, it is the proximity to nature even within the city—an approachable downtown that overlooks a river, provides easy access to hiking trails, and feels, somehow, a little bit remote.

The people who call Boise home want fine dining, great art, and easy commutes. Lucky for them, the Treasure Valley has it all.

Enter The Bannock, which aims to transform the skyline and the way you live.

Tommy Ahlquist of Ahlquist and Matt Bauscher of Bauscher Real Estate are partners in the new condo offering at The Bannock, located on 4th Street between Bannock and Idaho Streets in downtown Boise.

“Three blocks from our state capital and just blocks from some of the best restaurants, shopping, bars, coffee shops, in our entire state, The Bannock was created for that particular owner who wants an urban lifestyle, lock and leave,” stated Bauscher.

The first steel-constructed high-rise building offering for-sale units in downtown Boise since the construction of the Aspen Lofts on Front Street in 2009, The Bannock is reshaping the city’s silhouette and offering breathtaking views from its 64 condos.

The location has many pluses, including proximity to a grocery store and other downtown amenities and bike lanes linking the area to the city at large. Residents at The Bannock can enjoy all the best that Boise offers.

“It’s a complete lifestyle change living right here in the heart of the city,” Bauscher said. It’s an elevated lifestyle, with fabulous views of the Capitol building, Table Rock, the Boise foothills and downtown. “If you want the action and the excitement, you walk two minutes, but if you want to go to bed and have a quiet, peaceful night, it’s right here. It’s the best of both worlds,” he said.

If you’ve dreamed of a lifestyle where you can wake up in downtown Boise, jog with your dog on the Greenbelt or in the foothills, visit Art in the Park without having to find parking, walk to Boise Little Theater, your doctor at St. Luke’s, or the Ada County Courthouse, then you might want to check out The Bannock. With the parks, the river, and the foothills right at your doorstep, as well as a view of the Capitol and the Boise Depot, living at The Bannock can enable you to enjoy  Boise without needing any transportation. You can live where the action is in a walkable neighborhood.

On the northeast corner of 4th Street and Idaho Street, in addition to the condos, The Bannock will offer a branch for Idaho Central Credit Union; retail, medical, and traditional office space; and a parking garage.

Soaring above the city with breathtaking views in every direction, The Bannock rises as a beacon of luxury, redefining modern living in the heart of the Treasure Valley.  Surrounded by one of the Pacific West’s most diverse and stunning landscapes, The Bannock offers an unparalleled living experience with private, deeded parking, fine dining, and a workout facility.

To get going in the morning, enjoy a cup of your favorite joe with the convenience of the on-site coffee shop, a perfect space for meeting with friends or working remotely with ease. The Bannock has also thoughtfully designed mixed-use spaces where residents can work seamlessly from co-working areas and private conference rooms.

Minutes from the Boise Greenbelt, your furry friend can romp in the river or the park. Afterwards, an onsite dog spa offers a convenient space to effortlessly wash and groom your four-legged companion.

Just an elevator ride away, you can discover artfully made dishes made with fresh, locally sourced ingredients, served in a variety of inviting settings. Ahlquist is partnering with Greg and Kari Strimple, the owners of The Lively, to create a Japanese restaurant in The Bannock.

With stunning views of the Boise skyline, relax on the 7th-floor outdoor deck, ideal for socializing, featuring entertainment areas, cozy fire pits, and ample space to host guests.

One, two, and three bedroom units with open living spaces and breathtaking views of downtown Boise are available as well as two luxurious penthouse floors. Starting at 656 square feet to 2,383 square feet on the 11th floor, living at The Bannock comes with premium amenities so you can enjoy a day or a night on the town and close to home.
