Open Air Concepts is the 2009 Single-Family Residential Winner for the Colfax Ave. S. Renovation, Minneapolis
The Colfax Avenue South Renovation, submitted by Open Air Concepts, Inc., was announced as a 2009 EID winner in the Single-Family Residential category. Built in 1885 as the John Speedy House, this Queen Anne Victorian house is one of the oldest homes in the Lowry Hill Neighborhood. The house was derelict, having been converted to a triplex in its failing years. It has now been given new life with a whole-house remodel that is LEED SILVER certified by the U.S. Green Building Council.
The Colfax Ave South Renovation will be featured in more detail in the November issue of ED+C. |
