Uncovering History at 13 East Market Street

Construction began by revealing original leaded glass windows and oak woodwork hidden behind decades of renovations.

Uncovering History at 13 East Market Street

Construction is officially underway! As our team began evaluating the existing conditions at 13 East Market Street, we uncovered some incredible pieces of the building’s past.

Exciting Historical Discoveries

  • Original Lead Glass: We revealed beautiful lead glass windows that are original to the building and had been hidden behind years of prior renovations.
  • Classic Woodwork: Stunning original woodwork features were also discovered, which we are thrilled to preserve and incorporate into the new remodel.

Current Progress

Our crews have worked diligently to carefully strip away decades of alterations that covered up these historic features. With the initial clearing complete, we have already started reconstructing the space and are prepping the walls for fresh coverings and paint.

A Room with a View

It has been incredibly exciting to get a glimpse of what this space looked like in its prime. Opening the windows back up to reveal the original view overlooking the historic square is a milestone we won’t soon forget.
