University of Minnesota Off Campus Safety Center
The University Public Safety Department has created a new concept to improve accessibility to campus security. Located in an area with a large volume of student pedestrian traffic, a former night club has been transformed into a welcoming community space. The eclectic interior of a night club was adapted as a study, education and office space. Police representatives use the old bar as their staff center. The historic character of the exterior of the building has been preserved.
JB Hudson
Galleria
The tenant space construction involved both the interior and exterior of the building to create their brand statement. Working with the tenant’s designer, Adsit Architecture and Planning provided the construction drawings for a highly detailed jewelry store as Architect of Record.
J.H. & Sons Clothier, Galleria
Adsit Architecture and Planning was the architect of record for this high end men’s clothing store. The storefront details were executed in cast stone for an upscale look from the tenant’s designer’s concept drawings.
Atelier Academy Of Beauty
The Atelier Academy of Beauty is an example of adaptive reuse. The former automobile service garage was converted to a salon and school. Overhead door openings are equipped with glass doors that can be opened in bad weather. The open floor plan utilizes the garage space for salon services and teaching.
Vicksburg Square
Vicksburg Suare is a modern, flexible, office/ retail space. Suitable for a variety of tenants, the open plan interior can easily be adapted for specific uses.
​
A variety of exterior finish materials were used to differentiate the building from older commercial developments. Large store front windows face both the rear parking and major street views.
