GRANITE CITY, IL – Rosemann & Associates, P.C. is pleased to partner with the City of Granite City, Rise Community Development and Altman Charter Company on the restoration of the former historic Granite City YMCA into Edison Avenue Lofts, an Arts Hub and Affordable Housing development.

The original gothic revival structure, located at 2001 Edison Avenue, was built during 1924-1926 for Granite City’s branch of the YMCA. It served as a hub of community activity until 2004. Multiple generations of people grew up attending classes, sporting events and social events at the Y. The building was remodeled and changed over the years, but the YMCA’s mission was embodied here “empowering young people…to become healthier…connected and secure.”

The transformation of the historic YMCA building will enable it to continue to fill many of these same functions within the community by providing housing and security to its residents, enhancing the arts and community through artists-in-residence and creative studio space, and will once again fill the center of Granite City with the vibrancy of occupation and the creative arts. 

The City embraces the Y’s restoration as part of its extensive economic development action plan to revitalize downtown.  The building’s convenient location to restaurants, coffee shops, and movie theater encourage its residents to be an active part of Granite City life.

A new blade sign for the building, in the spirit of the original YMCA corner blade sign, will highlight its new life and purpose as well as hark back to the Y’s heyday.

Rosemann’s Anthology of the Plaza is the WINNER in the Renovation/Repositioning category for the 2019 Senior Housing News Architecture and Design Awards.  More than 100 communities nationwide submitted projects contending for the SHN Awards, a contest that recognizes excellence by celebrating projects that improve the lives of seniors through innovative design. Rosemann continues to lead the way with their unique and purposeful approaches to senior living design.

“Winning this award is such an honor because it says that we are doing things right and represents valuable feedback from the senior living community.  Our entire staff could not be more grateful,” said President & CEO Donald E. Rosemann.

Rosemann & Associates, P.C. celebrates this distinctive award with special thanks to Don Rosemann, Scott Rosemann, Gabe Vogl, Erin Morris and Zachary Arand of Rosemann’s Kansas City Office, along with the entire development team, including Owner / Operator, Anthology Senior Living; Building / Contractor, ARCO National Construction; and Interior Designer, Faulkner Design Group.

Award winning Anthology of the Plaza is uniquely positioned immediately east of the Country Club Plaza at 2 Emanuel Cleaver II Boulevard, Kansas City, Missouri. This high-end senior living development is a conversion of an existing five-story office building to 83,060 square foot assisted living and memory care community with 83 total units.
