Demolition uncovers treasured history.

All walls and partitions have been removed on each of the five floors

of the Cigar Factory, exposing some priceless treasures. Beautiful archways, historic signs, posters and artifacts from the building’s

time as a true cigar factory have been uncovered. Plans to incorporate

the past into the future Cigar Factory will follow the ongoing preservation of its legacy.

Will the Cigar Factory be your home for business? 

Along with luxury lofts, Cigar Factory will also feature 25,000 square feet of modern office space and 35,000 square feet of premium retail space. With plenty of parking, convenient access from downtown and Mt. Pleasant, this is a prime location for business. Chris Fraser of Grubb & Ellis | Barkley Fraser explains more.

Bridge and City views through massive, new industrial windows.

Old windows and bricked in windows are being removed and being replace with new, hurricane resistant windows. The massive new windows are composed of three layers of glass and one layer of acrylic with a true divided light design. Every effort is being made to capture the original look of the fabled original Cigar Factory design. You can see photos of the windows being replaced by clicking here.

 

Take an interactive tour of the Cigar Factory.

As the Cigar Factory is being transformed into luxury lofts, you can take an interactive tour of the building and learn more about the primo amenities, including 15-foot ceilings, massive industrial windows, city and bridge views, rooftop pool and much more. Click here for the Cigar Factory experience.

The House of Representatives approved legislation by Reps. Waters (D-CA) and Frank (D-MA) to extend authority under the National Flood Insurance Program until March 31, 2010. Without this authority, the program could not issue policies effectively preventing property buyers from legally obtaining mortgage loans in federal designated floodplains. The extension is needed to give Congress more time to consider long-term reforms to the program. Next the Senate must approve the legislation before the program’s current expiration date, which is September 30th.
