More apartment communities now offer bicycle storage amenitie
Ever take a shower with a bike? Sounds crazy, doesn't it? But the bathtub is one option many apartment dwellers are now using for bike storage these days because frankly, they have no choice.
That may soon change across the country as some savvy apartment communities now offer bicycle storage amenities to meet the demand from Millennials.
There are a couple of cultural shifts taking place in America that property managers, architects and builders would be wise to embrace.
First of all, the next generation of renters and frankly, high wage-earners and family-starters are now Millennials - those born from 1981 to 1997. The babies of Baby Boomers. This is the generation that is taking over the reins from the Boomer generation, who are now retiring at the rate of 10,000 per day.
This is the green generation. Bicycling to them is now preferable to driving in terms of impact on the environment.
