Frequently Asked Questions:
1. What is the history of the Gallery Lofts? Originally constructed in the 1930s and 1940s, the buildings at 120 and 130 S Hewitt Street were utilized as commercial warehouses. They were completely reimagined and modernized into residential live/work spaces around 2007. The developers intentionally focused on creating dramatic vertical volume, utilizing the building's historic framework to build incredible mezzanine-style lofts.
2. How do the Gallery Lofts differ from other buildings in the area? Unlike traditional, single-level warehouse conversions, the Gallery Lofts are famous for their mezzanine-style layouts and massive 26-foot ceilings. Furthermore, instead of a bustling resort-style rooftop, the Gallery Lofts feature a tranquil, Zen-inspired central courtyard with lush bamboo and water features, offering residents a peaceful, private sanctuary right in the middle of the city.
