Progress, Dust & A Lot of Heart

These old walls have stories to tell, and one by one, we’re helping them tell them again. Here’s what’s been keeping us busy, dusty, and genuinely inspired lately.

Work has been in full swing -and we’re thrilled to share that Building One has passed inspection for both electrical and plumbing. Walls are being sanded and painted, bringing freshness and warmth back to spaces that have been waiting patiently. Floors are being polished to shine and welcome each step that comes in. And the doors-those beautiful, character-filled doors - are getting some well-deserved TLC.

The roof work is moving along. We’ve received the hardware we needed to take that next step, frames are up, and lines are coming in and out. It’s the kind of progress that doesn’t always photograph beautifully, but means everything for what’s coming.

One of our favorite developments? Brick being exposed to the light again. There’s something about seeing the original bones of a building breathe that makes all the dust worth it. And yes - there is plenty of dust.

Perhaps most importantly, we’re proud to share that our plans have been approved by the city. It’s been a process that required patience, persistence, and a whole lot of paperwork - but we got there. That wouldn’t have been possible without the right support. We want to take a moment to sincerely thank the city for their support and patience throughout this process. Restoration projects like this one don’t happen in a straight line. We are grateful.

We’ll continue sharing updates as things progress - the good, the dusty, and the beautiful. Thank you for following along and cheering us on. The Vogelsang Buildings are coming back to life, and they can’t wait to welcome you.
