Once housing the North Star Blanket Factory, this downtown loft conversion, circa 1999, is situated overlooking the Stone Arch Bridge. A decade and a half later, this corner unit still had the exposed brick walls and amazing view, yet its new owners were seeking a better use of the space, higher finish level, and a style all their own.
