302 James Street North

hamilton, ONTARIO

A complete revitalization of an existing mixed-use, focal point heritage building in the heart of Hamilton’s James North arts district.  The renovated building houses new retail units for Steeltown Garage and The Bottle Shop, as well as a graphic design studio on the ground floor and several rebuilt residential rental apartments above. The new exit stair addition is clad in black metal siding, while storefronts are painted in bold colours and graphics for identity. A large garage door connects the Steeltown Garage motorcycle shop and café with the street. A modest, simple rehabilitation of a derelict building done well and with creative design.
