On Saturday November 2, 2019, the Champaign County Preservation Alliance (CCPA) will host its annual Urban Loft Tour in downtown Urbana, Ohio. Put on your walking shoes and get ready to see the upper stories of downtown. Several lofts have been completely renovated and others are in varying stages of renovation. The finished lofts show how livable downtown Urbana can be and the potential for the use of other similar spaces in the lofts above Urbana’s historic city buildings.
This year’s tour will feature seven locations, three are finished loft apartments, two are units under renovation, and two are spaces that have been sealed off for years – one for more than 100 years! You can also tour the Gloria Theater up to 1:00 PM. Most locations are accessed by staircases and are not handicapped accessible. Presale tickets for $12 are available on-line and will also be available starting October 16th at the downtown Urbana banks (Perpetual Federal Savings Bank, Security National Bank on Monument Square, and both Peoples Savings Bank locations), as well as the Champaign County Chamber of Commerce. All presale tickets must be redeemed at the Gloria Theater for the Tour Guide which serves as your entry pass into the locations. Same day tickets may be purchased at the Gloria Theater for $15. Proceeds from this tour go to the CCPA residential and commercial Facade Grant Program which promotes historical preservation and restoration of Champaign County’s unique architectural character. We welcome everyone to Champaign County! Thank you to Real Living Darby Creek for being our sponsor for the 2019 Urban Loft Tour. Mark your calendars for the 2020 Urban Loft tour -- November 7, 2020! |
