Time had been very hard on this two story masonry structure that was more of a candidate for the wrecking ball than restoration. The owners were committed to restoring the building which required stabilization of all of the exterior masonry walls with interior structural systems that also supported the second floor structure and the roof system.
Restoration costs were more than new construction, however the end result of saving this nice stone structure was worth the cost and effort, which has been appreciated by the community.
