Location: Norfolk, Virginia // Size: 15,000 SF // Completion Date: June 2025
What was once an abandoned self-storage facility has been reimagined as a vibrant destination for offices and retail. The transformation began by raising the roof, quite literally, to create airy, light-filled spaces. New storefronts with sleek, modern glass provide unmatched visibility and invite activity into the previously lifeless facade.
This bold redesign has turned a neglected structure into a cornerstone of urban renewal, replacing an eyesore with a beacon of opportunity. It’s proof that architecture can rewrite a city’s story, one building at a time.
