Downtown Dayton building to get $4M renovation

 

img7174*750xx3264-1836-0-306.jpg

 

A downtown Dayton building is getting a $4 million renovation as one of its biggest tenants reshuffles its space and expands its health clinic.

 

Public Health Dayton and Montgomery County plans to invest in re-working its space in the Reibold Building at 117 South Main St.. The group is preparing to seek bidders for the project, which will expand its health clinic and move around some offices in the building, where it takes up three floors.

I agree with edale. This site is perfect for a skyscraper that is mixed use - office, apartment/condo & ground floor restaurant/retail. What we end up with is a short bland carbon copy of their bland headquarters at Main & Monument. While it is nice that they are expanding downtown, Dayton needs to think bigger.

 

Dayton doesn't really say "no" to any project no matter what it looks like, which is probably why Brown Street is looking the way it does. But some of the new apartments that will be going up soon I think will be pretty nice, and I think we should be/hopefully will be reaching a point where there are actually enough people living in the core to demand higher design standards. It's just a challenge to get people on board with such things when you're a "second-tier" rust belt city and "first tier" (relatively speaking) cities like Cincinnati can barely get their infill act together as it is. I'm more disappointed that it's a near-clone of their other building than I am of the height... Dayton has enough other empty skyscrapers that I would like to see get some love, and I think this'll be a fine size for this site.

City, county commit to $1M for new CareSource tower

 

City of Dayton moved Monday to approve $500,000 for the new CareSource tower downtown, a day after Montgomery County approved the same.

 

Dayton commissioners moved Wednesday night to approve a development agreement with CareSource for the new seven-story, 250,000-square-foot tower the company is proposing to build at 118 E. First St. downtown. Montgomery County supported the project with its own $500,000 grant Tuesday. While the cost for the new office tower has not yet been announced, when completed it will house 900 people. The project, officials have said, remains contingent on incentives.

Former Dayton Daily News site to be cleaned up

 

img1106*750xx4320-2430-0-405.jpg

 

The city of Dayton is moving forward the effort to clean up and prepare the former site of the Dayton Daily News, which was partially demolished but left an eyesore and building debris.

 

This morning the city commission approved hiring a contractor to clean up the site at Ludlow and Fourth streets so it can be prepared for development. The nuisance demolition contract is with Bladecutters Lawn Service for $294,500.

img1382*750xx1600-900-0-150.jpg

 

The Levitt Pavillon has raised about $4.2 million toward its $5 million goal, marking progress for the downtown Dayton pavilion that will be home to 50 plus free concerts annually.

 

Officials involved in the project shared the updated fundraising figure and renderings with layout options as part of a public hearing on the project. About 80 people came out to the hearing at the Crowne Plaza Dayton hotel in downtown Dayton, which overlooks Dave Hall Plaza, where the pavilion will be.

Sinclair takes another step toward a new downtown Dayton 'front door'

 

sinclair-front-door-3*180xx781-586-90-0.png

 

Sinclair Community College has greenlit funds to begin designing a new "front door" for its downtown Dayton campus.

 

The school's board voted Tuesday to authorize $2.4 million to engage architects and engineers nationally to help design improvements to the downtown campus. While they aren't for construction, they are a part of an effort the school has been considering this year to make its campus more pedestrian friendly and give students better links to parking as well as a more distinctive "front door."

Monument Walk prepares for first residents

The first townhouses at Monument Walk in downtown Dayton are getting closer to the first homeowners moving in, as developer Charlie Simms charges ahead on local townhouse projects in Dayton and Beavercreek.

 

The 17 Monument Walk townhouses, along Monument Avenue, have the highest price point to date for Charles Simms Development's projects around the region and are a test on the demand from high-end buyers in the city's core. Simms, a seasoned residential developer around downtown Dayton, said when showing homes at other projects like Brownstones at 2nd, he would hear people ask if they had something larger.

Performing arts venue proposed in downtown Dayton

 

img2361*750xx4320-2430-0-405.jpg

 

Victoria Theatre Association plans to invest $1 million to build a new performance venue in the heart of downtown Dayton.

 

The organization is working up plans to renovate 12,000 square feet of ground-level retail space in the Courthouse Crossing building at 40 W. Second St. into a 200-seat "black box-style" performance venue for small acts, as well as some classroom and practice area, said Ken Neufeld, president and CEO of the VTA.

Levitt Pavilion officially a 'go' in downtown Dayton

 

With $4.3 million committed, the namesake organization behind the proposed Levitt Pavilion in downtown Dayton says the project is a go.

 

Levitt had raised $4.2 million of its $5 million goal by mid-November, before the Giving Tuesday push, it said. Now with the project in the home-stretch of fundraising, the Mortimer & Mimi Levitt Foundation said Thursday the project is getting the go-ahead, committing to the mid-2017 ground-breaking at the Dave Hall Plaza at Fourth and Main. They expect to hit the $5 million mark by then.

Downtown Dayton building lands $5M in tax credits, Arcade denied

 

img1140*750xx4320-2427-0-0.jpg

 

The Centre City building in downtown Dayton will get $5 million in state historic tax credits to help with its renovations. But in a big setback, a similar request for the Dayton Arcade was denied.

 

The Ohio Development Services Agency announced Tuesday 18 development projects in the state to be awarded a combined $22.8 million in Ohio Historic Preservation Tax Credits. It's good news to advance the $46.4 million plan to convert the Centre City building at 40 S. Main St. downtown — also known as the United Brethren Building — into 164 new apartment units with ground-floor retail.

Inside downtown Dayton’s $100M redevelopment project

Developers have a nearly $100 million plan to redevelop 400,000 square feet across two city blocks into the new Fire Blocks District in downtown Dayton.

 

The Ellway Group, led by partners Winfield Scott Gibson, Elliot Katz, Austin Sprenkel and Greg McCluskey, have piqued the interest of many in downtown with their plans for the “Fire Blocks” — two blocks of downtown bound by Second and Fourth streets, Jefferson and St. Clair streets. The project entails transforming several buildings into a mix of apartments, office and retail space.

Downtown Dayton Metro Library prepares for June opening

When the Dayton Metro Library opens its new downtown branch in June, the giant modern branch will bring a host of resources that spans far beyond book rentals.

 

The new Main Library has been under development for two years in the heart of downtown Dayton and is now in the home stretch of its journey.

Edit: Do these renderings show the new Health Sciences Center or the older buildings that used to be there? It also appears that 4th St. completely disappears through campus compared to the article that discusses narrowing it from 4 lanes to 2.

 

It's a tricky campus to plan, as the big space by 3rd St. is already nicely landscaped and attractive while the area around 5th St. is a "harsh looking wall of concrete" to quote the article. It'll be interesting to see what comes of this.

Yeah, anything is better than what it currently is now (a Brutalist bunker).

New CareSource building clears another hurdle

The new six-story CareSource tower planned downtown passed another hurdle Tuesday.

 

Dayton Board of Zoning Appeals approved variances allowing for the construction of the new office tower at First and Patterson, which will be the newest office space for the downtown-based Medicaid, Medicare Advantage and health insurance business to manage its growing national business.

"You don't just walk into a bar and mix it up by calling a girl fat" - buildingcincinnati speaking about new forumers

I can't picture the location - there are townhomes and businesses at First and Patterson.

They meant First and St Clair. It's the grassy lot across from Memorial Hall.

“To an Ohio resident - wherever he lives - some other part of his state seems unreal.”

Thanks! This will be great. So much momentum in downtown and it looks like they are finally working on the Arcade (found that out the hard way).

Really happy for Dayton and their urban renewal.  I'm in Cincinnati and don't see any of the action, but have been in Dayton quite a few times, mostly around UD area.  ColDayMan or any other Daytoners, is the revival here in Dayton similar to Cincinnati but on the "Dayton Scale" i.e. 1/3-1/2 of what Cincy is seeing?

Downtown Dayton's revival, being "half" of metro Cincinnati is NOT producing half of what downtown Cincinnati has done in the past 10 years.  The process in Dayton is slower due to a stagnant economy (Cincinnati is arguably the second or third healthiest metro in Ohio) and significant loss of corporate base (to f#cking Georgia).  It's more "organic" as the kids say...aka homegrown.  Local developers that try to bring their vision to a block or two, unlike the larger-scaled projects seen in downtown Cincinnati.

 

But in all, downtown Dayton is certainly improving (particularly on The Arcade front and Fireblocks) and is on a steady track.  Though you are from Iowa originally, I wish we had that Des Moines-type of boom here.

Thanks, sorry just saw this!  I am really happy for Dayton, I hope things can keep kicking up and I've heard really good things out of their Mayor, though I am not there so don't know everything.

 

Yes, Des Moines is really booming.  I was looking recently and they've had from 2010 to 2015 estimate 9.35% population growth.  Unfortunately like many Midwest cities, they had so so much ripped out of the city due to urban renewal, they are growing kind of similar to Indianapolis on their built form, of course on a much smaller scale.  They have the cool East Village, while it is really nice for Iowa, but it isn't a huge area.  Des Moines does Iowa about as best as any place could.  It is a nice clean city with a good economy.

Price Stores building in downtown sold to investor

 

The building that holds the Price Stores was sold earlier this week to an investor, but the iconic Dayton store isn’t going anywhere.

 

The retail structure, located at 52 S. Jefferson St. in downtown Dayton, sold for approximately $550,000, according to county property records. Edd Wimsatt, owner of Price Stores, said it was the right time to sell the building to an investor who is interested in revamping and developing downtown Dayton.

Exclusive: Downtown's Price Stores building will get a whole new (old) look

The Price Stores building in downtown Dayton is about to go back to its roots.

 

The five-story building at 52 S. Jefferson St. will lose the distinct beige panels that cover it over the next 12 to 18 months as The Ellway Group rehabilitates the building's top floors into a bar and a hotel. The namesake Price Stores shop will stay open on the ground space and part of the second floor, said Ellway principal Greg McCluskey.

I like the metal facade, too. Bring back big department store mammoths to downtown America!

Dayton CBD office vacancy rate has been in the toilet for years. A NJ investor bought a couple of larger office buildings there, maybe 3 years ago, and was going to convert one into apartments to market that to Sinclair students I think. Not sure if it happened. Performance Place is newer modern Condo building, residential and office. High Rise across the street, modern, was bought by Premier Health for maybe $20 a sq. ft. It would cost $250 a sq. ft. to build new.

That description sounds to me like the Schwind/Dayton Daily News building debacle on Ludlow and 4th, which involved demolishing the Schwind and "mistakenly" razing the historic 1922 addition to the old DDN building, and once that was done the project was abandoned (some deed restriction that was somehow a surprise). Sounded like some shady stuff. The rubble stayed there for almost three years and made the area look like a war zone, and the city finally paid a lot of money just to clean up the land surrounding the old DDN building.

Planners unveil the new look for the Levitt Pavilion

The planners for downtown Dayton's new $5 million entertainment venue revealed renderings Tuesday of what the new Levitt Pavilion outdoor concert space will look like.

 

Construction is primed to begin this summer on the Levitt Pavilion Dayton, to be built at Dave Hall Plaza next to the Crowne Plaza Dayton hotel. When completed in 2018, the open-air concert venue will host 50 free concerts a summer downtown. The project has been highlighted as a capstone development that will help revitalize a larger portion of south downtown.

I got a chance to hear a little bit more about the Fire Blocks District this evening... if/when all of this comes to fruition, this project will be a huuuuge shot in the arm to downtown!

 

Some highlights and photos:

 

-Overall, they've currently raised about half of the money needed to complete the project to their full vision. They're rolling it out in phases so they say they have more than enough to get the ball rolling right now.

 

-There are plans for 100-ish new residential units, and about 400,000 sf of office and retail space. First apartments are expected online later in 2018.

 

-They're hoping to work with local companies as much as possible to source materials for the interiors.

 

-Some businesses they're hoping to court: A bike shop, bakery, oyster bar, a "super-late-night" bar.

 

-Some businesses already coming: The candy store/speakeasy expansion for Century Bar, and a new Mexican restaurant at 3rd and Jefferson.

 

-The lot south of the DP&L building is planned to be part garage/part retail, with the garage level convertable for future uses.

 

-They're trying to save some of the facade of the Price building to use as interior design at one of the bars, which should make taestell[/member] very happy!

 

-They considered doing a grocery store but they don't feel the numbers are there for it yet.

 

-Green roofs, as evidenced in some of the slides below.

 

-This is probably a lotta bit boostery, but at least it shows some vision... their goal is to make this project something that the 3C's would all be envious of.

 

We'll see how all of this ends up turning out, but here's hoping it's smooth sailing for all parties involved.

A lot of this is "pretty renderings" and not any fleshed out, finalized plans, but they're definitely dreaming!

Three groups have proposed redeveloping the years-vacant Paru Tower in downtown Dayton.

 

The three parties — including a new local entity — all responded to a request from the city of Dayton released earlier this year calling for people interested in reviving the 14-story, 218,000-square-foot building at 34 S. Main St., which has been vacant since 2009 and suffered years of legal disputes.

Dayton to seek historic status for downtown tower

The city of Dayton will seek historic designation for a downtown building as it considers three proposals for that building's revival.

 

The 34 N. Main St. — "Paru Tower" is no longer its name as the letters on the building have been removed — was recommended for a historic designation by the plan board, which will then go to Dayton city commission in coming weeks. The 218,000-square-foot building was constructed in 1926 and local historic groups have noted its "architecturally distinct" features.

The Levitt Pavilion is closing on its fundraising goal, as developers finalize details on what the downtown Dayton music venue will look like.

 

Jeff Ireland, managing partner of Faruki Ireland Cox Rhinehart & Dusing, leads fundraising efforts for Friends of Levitt Pavilion Dayton, and he said at a meeting of the I-70/75 Development Association that about $4.5 million has been raised to the pavilion's $5 million goal. The partnership of the city, the local group and the Mortimer & Mimi Levitt Foundation is preparing to find a company to build the pavilion.
