Originally built as a lumber storage warehouse in mid-1920s, this near century old building underwent a multi award-winning renovation in 2004. The structure, made of brick, cast-in-place concrete construction, and timber framing, was reconstructed to include new windows, electrical, heating, cooling, plumbing, roof, secured subgrade parking (with new ramp), and a front dock for ADA accessibility. The project’s focus was to restore and modernize the building while still retaining its original character. With this in mind, the exterior was cleaned, the east elevation was bricked, and new exterior lighting was added. The interior was deconstructed down to its original brick shell and the original timber was sandblasted to a remove years of dirt and neglect. The interior design retains a modern, minimalistic look for a clean office aesthetic which highlights elements of the building’s history. The building is now one of four buildings which form Gallery Alley, a nighttime art & light walkway which is regarded as one of the most popular spectacles in the Historic Haymarket.
