THE ARTHAUS STORY
THE RESTORATION PROJECT
Restoring and renovating a 150 year old building comes with a lot of surprises!
As you can imagine, craftsmen in 1890 did things very differently than we require in 2021!
Your donations will literally build the foundation of this project.
The building needs work “from soup to nuts”, as they say. While we have secured the acquisition & majority of the renovation costs via PIDC, we have a significant gap in funding at the back end of the project.
Former Print Shop & Accounting Office
1st Floor: The floor in the back area is bowed and in need of structural repair due to decades of use with 5 large cast iron printing presses.
Stairs to 3rd Floor
This majestic staircase is pulling away from the wall and needs structural repairs. Subsequently the stairs below (from the 1st floor) need to be rebuilt (and possibly widened) to meet code.
Future Office or Programming Space
The lower level (basement) has an original dirt floor and needs to be leveled, concrete installed and bathroom & storage fit out.
Future Studio Apartment
The 3rd Floor has extensive water damage from decades of deferred maintenance.
In addition, unexpected structural repairs (they definitely did things differently in 1904 than we require today for safety!), required asbestos abatement, and increased materials costs due to the COVID pandemic’s impact on the industry have increased our shortfall as well.
