Carriage Lofts Give You a Chance to Live in a Historic Mill Building
In Amesbury, MA, there are a number of condo buildings and one of the known ones is Carriage Lofts. It is a redevelopment of an old mill building with historical significance in the mentioned town. Carriage Lofts consist of three huge buildings, which all served as mills in the past. Meanwhile, this redevelopment was completed back in 2004 with a $14 million budget.
Before the redevelopment of the old structures, they were just vacant for many years. No one was interested in repairing and modifying them to modernize the buildings. It resulted in them falling into disrepair until the developers noticed them and turned them into a 46-unit condominium.
The loft-style condos are just what the citizens of today need and there are ample choices available, especially for artists looking for an affordable condo unit. The condos are designed to be live and work spaces for the local artists and the building also feature an 8,000 square foot space that is currently used for cultural events.
When the buildings were restored, many processes were performed, including revamping the façade of all three structures in the area. The windows that were already closed and bricked in were reopened and were also replaced. However, most of them kept their sizes and shapes. Apart from the mentioned replacements and restorative tasks, the developers also requested for the repairs of all the structures. New dormers and roofs were also installed to help strengthen the insulation of the newly restored buildings. Soon enough, in June 2004, the redevelopment procedure was completed and the buildings started to welcome the new residents.
