History
[edit]The complex was constructed beginning in 1938 by the United States Tobacco Company.[3] Model Tobacco was the company's bestselling brand, and was one of many brands produced at the factory.[3] The site consists of ten contributing structures, grouped primarily in three sections: a six-story factory, a power plant, and storage warehouses.[3] The horizontal nature of the factory's construction reflected changes in tobacco production during the mid-20th century.[3] The most prominent building in the complex is the factory building, which was designed by architects Schmidt, Garden, and Erikson in the Art Deco style, with additional elements of International Style.[3]
In 2008, a developer had proposed turning the property into over 600 apartments at a projected cost of $84 million.[4] That development fell through due to the Great Recession, however.[5] In 2020, the property was sold to Christopher Harrison, a former NFL player turned real estate developer.[5][6] As of 2021[update] it was undergoing a $59 million renovation into over 200 upscale apartments.[7]
