And in 2025 it was revitalized through a blend of preservation and modernization. The building includes 228 apartments, 43 small business spaces, and 11 light industrial spaces. The building also includes spaces for tenant build out of a coffee shop, and restaurant. WPC’s role in the transformation of this 109-year-old landmark involved complex restoration work rarely seen in typical multifamily projects.
