Originally built in 1916 as the Robert Fulton School, this 45,000 square foot building sits on 5 acres. Fulton Hill Properties purchased the school in 1997, and restoration was completed in 1999.
With its huge banks of mullioned windows (each 8 feet by 40 inches) and completely restored heart pine floors, the 32 original classrooms have been transformed into an eclectic mix of more than 50 artist’s studios and office spaces for photographers, marketing companies and other businesses, including Fulton Hill Properties.
Now fully leased, this project was approved for State and Federal historic tax credits in 1998, and tax credits were syndicated upon building completion in 1999. One of the first schools in the country to be renovated for this type of use, Fulton Hill Studios is cited as an example of “Intelligent Adaptation” by the National Park Service when advising other localities that are contemplating similar projects.
