W Market Street

Project Description

HSB jumped at the opportunity to breath new life into this former Pizza-Hut building and re-imagine it as a modern, multi-tenant retail hub along the bustling W Market St corridor in Fairlawn. The bold, local developer saw potential in what was currently serving as a martial-arts studio, but knew that it would be quite an undertaking. Given the audacious vernacular of the former Pizza-Hut, HSB’s primary goal was to manipulate rooflines and establish a new identity.  The entirety of the building and its infrastructure was rehabilitated; from new mechanicals and electrical service to new roof and façade, and even new parking lot and landscape, ultimately resulting in a beautiful, contemporary retail building capable of serving tenants and driving economic growth for decades to come. What many once viewed as a ‘tear-down’ building, has become a proof-of-concept of how thoughtful design and a coordinated project-team can successfully capitalize on existing conditions to be a catalyst for future success.
