Now a favorite downtown Norfolk restaurant, this building suffered from a major fire prior to its restoration.

The fire gutted the interior, leaving few historic features intact, which allowed the owners to finish the space as they wished. Since the historic exterior was nearly unchanged, the owners undertook a meticulous restoration of the façade.

CPG assisted with the historic tax credit application, helping the owner to secure both state and federal credits.
