Constructed circa 1900 and thoughtfully updated, the property features a remodeled first floor with refinished concrete floors, high ceilings, updated mechanicals, electrical, plumbing, and a membrane roof. The ground level includes a coffee/wine bar, lounge, kitchen/prep area, event space, offices, restrooms, and access to a rear deck for outdoor use.
