The Foundry Lofts
Originally constructed in 1918, the distinctive four-story structure once known as Building 160 and the Pattern/Joiner Shop will be redeveloped as a 170-unit apartment building dubbed the Foundry Lofts, with two new floors added on top and a five-story open interior courtyard and some ground-floor retail. Work began on the renovation in 2008, but stalled in early 2009 because of funding issues. Designs by SK&I Architecture Design Group. (6/08)

Looking at Building 160 from one of the new temporary surface parking lots, near what will eventually be a new Second Street, just as work gets underway on 160's rehab. (04/08)

Another view of the building, looking north from the park footprint (standing about where the pedestrian bridge will cross above and between the two canals), south of where 3rd Street will end at Water Street, in August 2005, while the DOT HQ was still under construction. The DOT HQ is at the left/center (with 3rd Street bisecting its two buildings). (08/05)

The same spot, with construction underway. (10/29/08)

A rendering of almost the same spot, with the renovated Foundry Lofts and its two new floors at center, and a hint of the layout of the waterfront park and the additional buildings that will some day sprout on either side of it. This also depicts the old Lumber Storage Shed (Building 173, at right) in its new profile as a a glass-enclosed retail space. Designs by SK&I Architecture Design Group.
