Lofts at Fillmore PhoenixWalking through the hallways of the Lofts at Fillmore you get the instant feeling that the residents here are friends. With its large front porch and the photos and messages that cover many of the units’ metal doors. The Lofts at Fillmore is a unique property in Phoenix. It is one of the few projects that converted a historic property into updated residential condos (unfortunately because most of these types of buildings have been demolished in Phoenix). Originally built as the Moeller Building, a hotel/apartment, in 1929, this building was converted to 18 condo units in 2000. Units on the 1st floor have stairs that lead into their basement bedrooms that provide a cool place to sleep (both temperature and aesthetically). Lofts at Fillmore exposed brick PhoenixThe architect and developer of the Lofts at Fillmore didn’t try to hide the age and imperfections of this building. Instead, they made it a part of the building’s character and design element. Original exposed brick walls, exposed piping & ductwork, and more mix with its modern finishes.
