The greatest challenge was to take three severly deteriorating structures, two adjacent to each other, and one a block away then convert them 13 into creatively laid out 2 and 3 bedroom apartments. Flats, two-levels, and bridging of areas.
Given the historic eligibility of the buildings the architectural documents had to be quite sensitive relative to exterior architectural details and specs.

All units incorporated the latest in energy efficient: appliances; furnaces; replacement windows; extra exterior wall and roof insulation.
