June 15 was the soft-opening for Little Guatemala - exactly 3 years from the day they purchased the building. We are so proud of Christian and Erica and all of the people that have helped breathe new life into this building and into the community. CONGRATULATIONS!
We can nearly smell the freshly roasted coffee beans from Little Guatemala… Christian and Erica and a team of friends, volunteers, and workers are putting in the final push to wrap up this initial phase of their construction. Coffee shop, cafe, event space, indoor soccer field - this labor of love will soon be a cultural hotspot in Morganton highlighting the perfect blend of North Carolina and Guatemalan culture.
On April 7, the Morganton Main Street Advisory Board toured our Adaptive Reuse 01 building currently halfway through construction. We are excited that Morganton’s very own were able to tour one of our latest projects.
The existing historic structure features over 5,000 sf of space being renovated for private residential use in downtown Morganton. The two story building will also feature a roof deck with stunning mountain views. The long and narrow design prioritizes natural daylight with the use of skylights and an atrium. This project is expected to be completed later this year, so stay tuned for more construction updates!
