Holling Place, the largest downtown residential project in over 20 years, opened to much acclaim in June. To date, approximately seventy percent of the 10-story building's 82 units have been leased.

Located at 501 Washington Street, the building's one and two-bedroom units offer spectacular downtown views. Due to tax credit financing, there are income restrictions for applicants with rents from $540. The complex offers free high-speed internet, exposed duct work, hardwood floors, exercise facility, business center, and fully equipped kitchens.

Eran Epstein's of E Square Capital is one of several developers seeing promising opportunities in converting attractive but obsolete downtown office and warehouse buildings into residential lofts. Holliing Place was built in 1924 and housed a commercial printing firm for many years. Epstein has other work underway. The firm plans on renovating a building across the street at 504 Washington Street into six, three-story loft condominiums in a project called "The Brownstone." 937 Broadway and the former YWCA Residence on North Street are being converted into senior citizen apartments.
