19th Place S. Office Building
This building on 19th Place South is being demolished and turned into a two-story office building.
A vacant building located at 2724 19th Place S. is being demolished down to its steel frame, which will become the backbone of a new professional office building.
Owner Rima Hartman, a lawyer at Bressler Amery Ross, said the building had been sitting vacant for a while but had a great location, so she decided to overhaul it for new tenants. Murray Construction is handling the demolition and construction.
“We just finally decided to put it back in service,” Hartman said.
The finished building will be two stories and approximately 20,000 square feet, with a redesigned exterior, lobby and interior. Hartman described the project as “essentially a completely new building.”
The first phase of construction will create the exterior and common areas, and it will be completed by the end of the summer. Phase II, Hartman said, will be “build to suit” construction based on the tenants’ needs. She is currently looking for tenants in any professional fields who would be interested in the office space.
