lofts

Converted warehouse apartments

Lofts is the plural of loft—an upper space or room, typically under a roof or in a converted industrial building.

A hay loft stores hay above a barn floor.

A sleeping loft sits above a main living area.

Converted warehouse lofts became desirable urban housing.

In golf, loft refers to the angle of a club face, and to loft a ball is to hit it high into the air: She lofted the ball over the defender's head.
