City and developer to host public meeting on the reuse and revitalization of Historic Old Central High School

[Duluth, MN] Saturday Properties, along with staff from the City of Duluth, will host a virtual meeting on Wednesday, April 14, from 5:00 to 6:30 p.m. to share plans for the reuse of the Historic Old Central High School at 200 North 1st Avenue East.    The virtual meeting will include a short presentation from Saturday Properties, the site developer, and their contracted architect AWH on the site's plans to be revitalized from the historic high school into multifamily apartments. 

Saturday Properties will renovate the historic structure to house approximately 125 rental units, primarily market-rate rental.  The additional proposed housing in this area will take advantage of the excellent access to nearby commercial businesses, local employers, and recreational amenities.

The reuse of the structure will preserve the unique architectural character of this important local landmark.  Saturday Properties will maintain and restore the Historic Old Central High School, ensuring its longevity for years to come.  For more information on the project, visit www.zenithdchs.com.
