The original building was built in 1929 and operated as the Fargo Paper Company. “It didn’t lo ok anything like this on the outside, just some small windows. Then in 1960 it became Dakota Flo oring; they added a flo or to the top, where you can see the brick color change,” Stroh explained. Stroh purchased the building in 2007 from the Plains Art Museum. Then they gutted, ice blasted the entire building and renovated it for their move in 2009. “We renovated it and moved in February 2009, we gutted everything besides the structural components and removed sections of the flo or. We bolted in this large staircase and added this slanted glass wall in the conference ro om.” This open flo or concept on the bottom two flo ors serves as office space for the 10 TL Stroh Architects and Interiors employees and the top two flo ors are made up of 18 unique studio and one-bedro om apartments. 42
