RENOVATION OF THE
JENKINS
BUILDING, 32 BROADWAY AVE.
In
1987 a fire gutted the then-abandoned building. Camille-Alberice Architects, P.A. bought the burned-out shell in 1995, with
intentions to renovate it into mixed-use occupancy. The ground floor of
the renovated building now houses a graphic design firm along
with The Over Easy Cafe. The second floor includes four custom condominiums
and a a hair styling salon. The
third floor consists of three unique condominiums. The ground floor of
the building housed the offices of Camille-Alberice Architects, P.A. until
we moved in August, 2006 to our new location in the 12
South Lexington Ave. building.
Historic preservation/ rehabilitation of the existing building
to mixed use occupancy. The Jenkins building was built in downtown
Asheville in 1912. At one point the building served as a boarding house, then
later became a grocery store, and fell into disrepair by the 1970's.
