Adaptive Reuse

I have always been interested in architectural Adaptive Reuse, even before I knew what it was called. The most common examples are conversions of a single-room school or a church to a house. Of course there are many others. I would love to convert an up-north building into second home. The main disadvantage would be that it wouldn't be waterfront property.

This house, located in Royal Oak at the corner of Knowles and Sixth Streets, is one of my favorites.

I also like "reusing" old structures. Didn't know it had a "technical" name. Looking forward to keeping up with your family's progress.
