2800 Walnut

With warehouses a plenty, the RiNo neighborhood is well equipped to seamlessly revive inactive spaces and maintain the unique architecture of the community. One of these properties is the Gold Star Sausage Co. with five linked buildings and an iconic sign on the corner of 28th and Walnut. Through this adaptive reuse transformation, OZ has emphasized key features of the original warehouse revealing unique structural and material details. The exterior includes low profile canopies and elevated walkways to activate the pedestrian level and allow passers-by to view the retail space inside. The project is expected to house a number of creative firms, restaurants, and retailers. The Gold Star is another exemplary model of adaptive re-use in RiNo, transforming the heavily-used warehouse into a fresh and contemporary space that maintains the building’s history and character.
