Originally constructed as a Sears department store in 1942, this building was converted into a loft style office building offering 90,000 SF of office space and 40,000 SF of retail space. The building delivered in late 2020 and includes a new, 30,000 SF fourth floor with 2,500 SF of private, outdoor terrace space. The conversion resulted in more flexible building floor plates, higher ceilings, large windows, and private outdoor terraces.
