The Boilermaker Shop
Built in 1919 on the northeast corner of 3rd and Tingey Street, the old Building 167 will be renovated into 46,815 sq ft of retail space, although at this time there is no start date for construction, though leasing is underway. The now-completed DOT HQ is at left and Building 202 is peeking out at far right. (3/07) 
A June 2008 rendering of what the renovated Building 167 will look like at dusk, as seen from Tingey Street near Fourth Street (the reverse view from the photo above it). (06/08)
A closer view of the southern exterior of Building 167 (similar to the above rendering), as it awaits its rehabilitation. (7/17/08)
The interior of Building 167, looking toward its Fourth Street door, with its multitudes of windows along the sides and in its roof letting in much light, even on a cloudy day. In the center of the wide-open space there will be a new mezzanine level built (see rendering below), but on both ends of the Shop the two-story open-air feeling will be retained. (7/17/08)
Two views of what the interior renovations of Building 167 may look like, from angles similar to the above photos; at left, a loft-like 2nd level would allow extra retail space while retaining the open industrial feel of the building; at right, the renovated exterior. Designs by Gensler.
