The Avenue District Hard Hat Tour

A top-to-bottom look at The Avenue District

On Saturday, Sept. 22, 2007, Zaremba hosted The Avenue District Hard Hat Tour for future residents of the walkable neighborhood.

The day started out at 9 a.m. with continental breakfast, and then participants split into two groups – one lead by Matt Zaremba and Site 3 project manager Mike Sathre, and the other by Nate Zaremba, Jr. – to visit both Building One at 1211 St. Clair Ave. and the Site 3 townhomes at Rockwell Avenue and E. 15th Street.

At the townhomes, participants were able to view the inside of a townhome in the drywall phase, as well as get up to the roof to see how the rooftop decks are being constructed.


At 1211 St. Clair Ave., participants first toured the first floor and proceeded down to the basement level. Mark Panzica from Panzica Construction explained how each of the buildings 10 floors would be poured and constructed.
