Project Description

This project consisted of the thoughtful renovation of the former Sur Le Table store located on State Street. We successfully converted the first floor into a commercial lease space, while the back portion of the building, along with the second floor, have been transformed into workforce housing. The development includes 14 well-designed studio apartments, with ten situated on the second floor and four on the first floor. Furthermore, the second floor is equipped with a community space intended to enhance the living experience for residents.
