Adaptive use of a historic manufacturing and warehouse facility as a 62,556-square-foot commercial office building. The renovation has acted as a catalyst to further redevelopment of a declining area near downtown Atlanta into a burgeoning arts district. By taking advantage of tax credits for historic preservation and facade easements, along with a negotiated property tax freeze, the building can achieve a profit at 60 percent occupancy. The building’s proximity to downtown and the Georgia Institute of Technology offers tenants a convenient location, and the historic characteristics of the building provide an alternative to conventional office buildings.
