Ah the excitement the first time I discovered this incredible structure- I couldn’t wait to start exploring and restoring and dug in immediately despite how cold it was outside!

There have been some incredible discoveries from the news articles about the original owners to finding the hidden curved staircase and covered up curves into windows as well as the many stories from the community- mostly about mended bones and recalling the awe from the first time they saw this structure!

This is quite a unique structure in many ways, but especially because it can be a business, return to being a residence, or a hybrid as live-work. I am so happy to have preserved some elements and it is difficult to part without realizing its full potential, but with these many possibilities, it has become clear that the ultimate end-user needs to be the person(s) to determine the next renovation steps. With this, it is time to find the next steward to help this beauty realize its full potential…is it you?
