Grand opening for the Lofts apartments in Marquette. Lake Superior Community Partnership
A historic building in downtown Marquette is remodeled and reopen with new tenants and loft apartments.
The Lofts is the new name of the housing spaces available at The Motors Buildings at 333 West Washington Street in Marquette, owned by Christine Pesola. The former Upper Michigan Motor Corp. building has in the past been home to retail shops of various types, and is currently also occupied on the ground floor by the RG Design Company.
The Lofts and RG Design, in fact, held an open house with the Lake Superior Community Partnership to welcome the public to see the new renovations at the end of 2016, and rentals are now open to those interested in a downtown Marquette loft-style apartment.
Pesola told TV6 that there are a total of six lofts, with some already rented. They feature brick walls, high ceilings, exposed beams and pipes, along with covered parking spaces for tenants.
RG Design is operated by Dax Richer and Jason Gauthier and has an office and showroom in the building, focusing on the company's architecture, interior design, kitchen and bathroom offerings.
