Sheboygan, WI: Rosemann staff joined Missouri-based Green Street Real Estate Ventures, ARCO Construction Company, Inc., and other project partners, dignitaries, and guests on Friday, October 29th to celebrate the official Ribbon Cutting and Grand Opening of The Oscar, a beautiful redevelopment of a 17.5-acre site located in the heart of Sheboygan, Wisconsin, formerly occupied by the VanDerVart Concrete Company (once known as the Oscar Zimbal Brick Co.). A new Kwik Trip and a 1.5 acre lot is a redevelopment opportunity soon to be identified.

The recently constructed site is now transformed into a high-density, 240-unit apartment, 4-story housing and mixed-use suburban retreat, with 232 of those units economically priced for the workforce segment. The first residents moved in on Monday, November 1st.  Rosemann worked closely with the ownership and build team to create a vibrant urban neighborhood feel, while integrating the best modern architectural features to match the coastal community of Sheboygan.

“We appreciate the opportunity to collaborate with our valued partner, Green Street Real Estate Ventures and its experienced team to create a refreshing design that complements the community of Sheboygan. Developments like this are making important steps in easing the lack of available housing options. This is just one of many exciting projects we have been working on with Green Street throughout the U.S.,” said Rosemann’s Vice President/Studio Director Jarrett Cooper.

The Oscar delivers beautifully detailed interiors in rich color schemes with 1, 2, and 3-bedroom layouts and modern fixtures. Luxury amenities include a 6,000 SF Community Building, which is a remodel of the previous office building, repurposing it for the needs of the staff and residents. The structure delivers a lounge, gathering area, and meeting spaces, providing residents with multiple areas to work-from-home and play, along with billiards, kitchenette, pet grooming spa, bike storage, package room, 24-hour fitness center with first-rate cardio and strength training equipment, and studio decks for group exercise classes. Residents love the convenience of the subsurface temperature controlled and secured parking beneath all buildings. A separate existing building is being renovated to provide secure storage for the residents. The use of the two existing buildings into the new layout helps to maintain a part of the original property in tact.

The great outdoors is complete with lounging area and fire pit, pavilion, barbeque stations, putting green, and rustic playground. Residents easily stay active being in close walking distance to Franklin Park and the newly accessible city bike trails.‍

Joining Rosemann on this venture is St. Louis based Green Street Real Estate Ventures (developer); ARCO Construction (general contractor), Stock & Associates Consulting Engineers, Inc. (project engineer) and GMA Architects (interior designer).

Kansas City, MO: This year, Rosemann celebrated 34 years of architecture for the way people live. Starting in 1987 in Kansas City, Missouri, Founder & CEO Donald E. Rosemann, NCARB, AIA started a small architecture firm on his own in hopes to work in an environment where people and talent could collaborate and grow. He took on projects that required teams working together creating innovative design to construct interesting and sustainable buildings. Hence, Rosemann & Associates, P.C. was formed and has evolved into a professional staff of over 50 and a leading architectural firm with 4 thriving locations in Denver, Kansas City, St. Louis, and Atlanta.

Rosemann’s success stems from its people-centric, family-focused, and fun work culture where we celebrate our employees. We also understand that the industry is constantly changing, especially with technology and market unpredictability. We continually adapt and through exceptional and environmentally responsible design, we cultivate our craft and remain committed to our mission of designing communities nationwide where people live, learn, age, and thrive.

With a distinct history of expertise in architecture, interiors, planning, and structural engineering, we are pleased to be recognized as a leader in the architectural industry. Rosemann could not be the success it is today without our talented team, loyal clients, and positive collaboration with project partners for which we are grateful.  

“For all of you who have been with us since the beginning, we would like to say a very special Thank You. And to those who have joined us along the way, thanks for making us part of your life,” said Donald E. Rosemann.

East St. Louis, IL: The 7-story historic Broadview Hotel at 415 E. Broadway in Downtown East St. Louis is being redeveloped into The New Broadview, an affordable senior and veterans living apartment community. The venture is being funded by Rebuild Illinois, the state’s five-year statewide construction program. Efficacy Consulting, LLC, a North St. Louis based firm, and East St. Louis-based Community Lifeline will both undertake the building’s redevelopment.

The Broadview Hotel was completed nearly 100 years ago in 1927 and stood tall as the city’s largest and finest first hotel operating in East St. Louis and doubled as a regional and statewide convention and meeting venue. The structure was designed under the direction of Arthur J. Widmer for Widmer Engineering Company and exemplified the principles of Classical Revival design as well as modern urban hotel planning. The hotel operated in East St. Louis until the mid-1980s when Southern Illinois University took over the property and offered community and educational based programs.
 
In 2006, the building was turned over to the City of East St. Louis, where it has remained vacant until now. In December 2013, the building was listed in the National Register of Historic Places, allowing an opportunity for the developers to utilize Historic Tax Credits, which provides equity to help finance the redevelopment.

Rosemann’s design will include improvements to the historic building’s fabric in its public spaces for lobbies and activity spaces and will transform 129,831 total gross square feet and 7 total stories into 109 apartment units in a mix of 1- and 2-bedroom garden units and town homes, including accessible, adaptable, and visual and hearing-impaired units. The project also accommodates a home to a Transit Oriented District Senior Services Center providing community-based supports and services and a connection to resources for older adults including health and wellness programs, nutritional support, educational programs, and computer and information technology. The property sits approximately a block away from the Metrolink transportation center and ties downtown East St. Louis to other employment centers on both sides of the river. 

Rosemann & Associates looks forward to collaborating with owner/developer, Broadview Development, LLC; development firm Efficacy Consulting & Development; developer Fulson Housing Group; general contractor Russel HBD Construction, Inc.; engineering consultants, Horner & Shifrin, Inc.; and all the project team. Construction start is scheduled for year 2022.
