HAWTHORNE SCHOOL APARTMENTS > DAYTON, OHIO

The purpose of this project was to develop an upscale urban dwelling space in the historic McPherson Town District adjacent to downtown Dayton. The original features of the school were maintained throughout the building. Care was taken to integrate original features into the final design, such as the original stage, the gymnasium floor, and the slate boards, thus retaining the historical relevance of the structure. The exterior façade of this circa 1886 building were restored as were the large windows and doors. The final result: 28 beautiful apartments ready for urban living with historic appeal.
