Playhouse Square Plans Next Office-to-Apartments Project
More changes are in the wings for Playhouse Square Foundation's The Bulkley Building, at 1501 Euclid Ave., than the addition of a golden marquee that is going in at the attached Allen Theatre.
The operator of the city's restored theaters and its theater district development corporation plans to add 84 apartments in the nine-floor Bulkley Building. It's another example of vacant office space getting new use serving the growing downtown residential market.
Craig Hassall, Playhouse Square president and CEO, said in an interview he is excited that the project, which has an estimated cost of $22 million, will support the organization financially and artistically while also advancing Cleveland Mayor Justin Bibb's goal of increasing downtown's population.
