THE PROJECT STORY

Built in 1920. Reimagined for what comes next.

The original home at 721 Columbia Street is a contributing historic bungalow in the Heights South Historic District. Monroe Valles is preserving and restoring the original street-facing portion, removing a later rear addition, and introducing a new two-story rear addition designed for contemporary living.

We’re giving it its next 100 years.

03 · ARCHITECTURE + DESIGN

Preserving character. Creating what comes next.

The design restores the defining character of the original 1920 bungalow while introducing a new two-story rear addition with the scale, function, and luxury residential finishes expected for contemporary living. It is a deliberate continuation—historic where the property’s identity is rooted and new where it serves the way people live now.
