HOUSTON – Lovett Commercial will convert the historic Farmer Bros. Co. coffee plant at 235 N. Norwood St. into an arts and music educational campus.
Built in 1938, the 281,615-sf facility sits on six acres.
The company plans to cut atriums into the building and strip away a lot of the interior infrastructure to reveal the existing concrete columns and materials.
Plans also include transforming the roof into event space with a bar.
Construction begins in 18 months.
