HISTORIC REHABILITATION
Special care and expertise must be applied to the rehabilitation of historic structures when encountering antiquated and potentially hazardous building materials and bringing the structure up to current building standards without compromising its integrity. LaRosa has successfully completed projects where either the building was listed on State and/or National Historic Registers, or the project was within a historic district.

Hollander Foundation Building
Hartford, CT
Award-Winning Project
This project was the renovation and restoration of a 6.5-story historic building in Hartford, Connecticut. The “old capitol building” was renovated into 70-units of mixed-income rental housing as well as 13,000 SF of ground floor commercial space, for a total of approximately 100,000 GSF. The building is within walking distance to Hartford’s Downtown, Entertainment District, and Train Station.
This project is the first LEED® Certified Multifamily housing project in the State of Connecticut, and the first LEED® Certified project to use historic tax credits. During the initial design of this project, the LEED® Silver level was the goal. During the construction, there were items performed that added extra points to submit and receive LEED® Gold level.
