 REICHERT PLACE HOTEL

                      PROPOSED

Our firm assisted the HRA of Long Prairie, Minnesota, in the renovation of the historic Reichert Place Hotel (built in 1903) into apartments.  The one-, two- and three-bedroom units will serve the needs of the Long Prairie community for many years.  The Reichert Place has been a town landmark for nearly a century and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.  Our task was to convert the building to a new use while retaining the historic character of the structure.  The renovated building, completed in 2001, has off-street parking and a children's playground.

HEINS BLOCK

 PROPOSED

Our firm is currently assisting the City of Olivia and the Southwest Minnesota Housing Partnership Inc. in the renovation of the historic Heins Block in downtown Olivia.  The renovated building will have retail space on the first floor and one- and two-bedroom apartments on the second and third floors.  We were successful in placing the building on the National Register of Historic Places in 2001.  Once the renovation is complete, the building will once again be a beautiful place to live and to work.  The renovation will reflect the historic character of the building and its significance in the development of the town of Olivia.  The building has been an important landmark in Olivia since it was constructed in 1896.

ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) PROJECTS

When the ADA became law in 1990, it required public buildings to be accessible to all.  It has also helped to change the ways in which many Americans look at accessibility issues.

Sabongi Consulting Group, Inc. incorporates analysis of accessibility issues into every project.  Our designers and technicians work with clients to insure that every project -- new construction or the renovation of historic buildings -- will be fully accessible.  We are skilled in making old buildings accessible without compromising their historic integrity.
