This adaptive reuse project created 46 apartment/loft units for artists to live and work. Located in downtown Hartford across from the historic Union Station, the existing four story building was completely renovated to provide affordable and suitable living/studio space on four above-ground floors. A common exhibit and cafe space incorporated into the ground floor provides a sense of community for the residents, and a downtown Hartford destination point for people interested in the arts. Storage and workshop spaces are provided on one level below ground. All building systems were renovated or replaced.
