Project 216 - Imagineering

This house at 216 West 6th St. had reached the bottom, being neglected so badly as to become uninhabitable. The girls, as we call them, the sisters who purchased this house and brought it back to life, exercised faith to invest their treasure for the chance to earn a little profit by updating then selling the house. They were successful according to their aims and now the same and even greater opportunity is in our hands.

The two year project the girls undertook was aimed at bringing the house to just above par for the neighborhood by the time they completed the work and put it on the market. “Par” at the beginning for them was a goal that anyone would have called ridiculous. The neighborhood was still very ugly when they came looking at this house, but they had a vision and a dream. From the time they took over this house, about seven years ago until now, the neighborhood has made rapid strides in improvements in the quality of life and there is a new “Par”.
