The iconic JC Penny Building, originally constructed around 1905, was given a new life when it was transformed in 2016 into a mixed-use development - now home to seventeen residences, along with Maple Hall - ''a spirited bowling experience''. This stunning two-bedroom residence features an expansive great room with enormous windows and a Juliette-style balcony, soaring ceilings, and open dining area and kitchen complete with concrete countertops, sleek cabinetry and stainless appliances, including a brand new refrigerator. This impressive loft boasts an elegant blend of modern & refined-industrial styles, while retaining the historic character of the rustic exposed brick, plaster walls, and original exposed structural beams. Additional features include generous closets/storage, a separate laundry room complete with a washer/dryer, and controlled elevator access along with fob/coded access at both the front Gay Street entrance, as well as the back entrance, which opens onto the Promenade Garage (which has EV charging stations).
