PROJECT OVERVIEW On the corner of Lemp and Cherokee resides a 3 story structure to host a boutique hotel of 30 rooms as well as a restaurant on the lower level. Preservation of the original exterior is the number one priority to sustain the historical integrity. Minor modifications will be made for the building’s new use, but the modernized remodel of the interior will prolong its existence. Locals and tourists will be drawn to the site due to its historical significance and desire to experience the exciting yet relaxing atmosphere.

PROJECT GOALS • • • • • •

Create a unique space and experience to attract guests Provide amenities that include entertainment and relaxation Separation of quiet and busy spaces Meet universal design requirements Keep the historical background present Incorporate local culture

PROBLEM STATEMENT Rising levels of gas emissions from energy use of fossil fuels continue to enter the atmosphere and cause harmful effects on the environment: one major contributor being Carbon Dioxide, or CO2. This gas can be emitted from a variety of common construction practices: production of cement, steel, and iron. Renovation and preservation of buildings provides minimal impact on the environment while also allowing the community to witness and experience the transformation of old or historical sites.

2

CONCEPT STATEMENT As a storm begins to brew, there is a calmness present before the rainfall breaks the silence. This moment of anticipation leading to the commotion is filled with a sense of tranquility as well as excitement. The upper floors of the building incorporate that tranquil sense through the light and bright hotel room design. This brief peaceful state can bring relaxation, but once the clouds burst, the energy becomes much livelier. The first floor embodies the excitement once the storm has arrived: a lounge, coffee and cocktail bar, multipurpose space, and game area all express the lively, yet darkened atmosphere. The thrilling aspect of the storm stimulates the mind and creates an entertaining environment.

ENVIRONMENTAL EFFECTS In order to receive immediate and lasting benefits, reusing older buildings has the great advantage of keeping the history alive and improving the environment simultaneously. This process preserves the historical culture and extends it for years to come. Reuse of buildings is much more impactful in locations where coal is the dominant energy source. Missouri has the second highest percentage in the U.S. at 81.6%.

RESEARCH • “23 percent of the world’s CO2 emissions, and almost six percent of these emissions come directly from activities on construction sites” (Boni).

• “The major threat from increased CO2 is the greenhouse effect. As a greenhouse gas, excessive CO2 creates a cover that traps the sun’s heat energy in the atmospheric bubble, warming the planet and the oceans. An increase in CO2 plays havoc with the Earth’s climates by causing changes in weather patterns” (Kazmeyer).

• Building new homes creates a great amount of CO2, but they will be more energy efficient 15-20 years later down the road. Older properties hold the advantage over new builds due to their immediate benefits to the environment (Berners-Lee).

• “...reuse and retrofit are particularly impactful in areas in which coal is the dominant energy source and more extreme climate variations drive higher energy use” (“The Greenest Building”).

• 81.6% of energy in Missouri is produced by coal making is the 2nd highest state (“Electricity Sources by State”).

ADAPTIVE REUSE This method alters the purpose of the building while maintaining the original structure and is also known as rehabilitation. The following standards must be met for this project type: 1. A historic building must be 50 years or older 2. Have significant national and local history 3. Have great architecture or is known to be designer by a well-known architect 4. Considered a local landmark 5. Recognized nationally as a structure to a historic district listed on the National Register of Historic Places 6. Listed individually on the National Register of Historic Places RESEARCH • “Reusing older buildings result in immediate and lasting environmental benefits” (“Sustainable Historic Preservation”).

• “Preservation keeps our nation’s history and culture alive and we learn much from the methods and practices of those who came before us” (“Sustainable Historic Preservation”).

• Adaptive reuse changes the purpose of a structure rather than returning it to its original state. This is also the most cost-effective option compared to restoration or new construction (Clark).

BOUTIQUE HOTELS TRENDS These smaller businesses attract those who are craving new scenery compared to the regular chain hotel as well as a downtown social gathering place. The demographic is generally those in their 30s-40s and younger travelers in search of a trendy brand or new experience. One popular trend in boutique hotels has been turning to adaptive reuse of abandoned or outmoded downtown buildings.

RESEARCH • “By definition a boutique is a ‘small, fashionable, and independent” (Rutes, et al. 27).

• “The popularity of the boutique hotel may be attributable to the growing sophistication of the traveling public, especially the younger, style-conscious, business traveler, in reaction to the predictable blandness of the established hotel trade” (Rutes, et al. 27-28).

• “According to Kimpton: ‘The individuality of boutique hotels appeals especially to travelers in their 30’s and 40’s, a generation who has seen everything that chain hotels have to offer.’ Today’s young travelers require something new and innovative” (Rutes, et al. 28).

• “Attracting trendsetters and celebrities, boutique hotels have ushered in the return of the hotel lobby as a downtown social gathering spot” (Rutes, et al. 28).

• “In absence of suitable hotels to renovate, developers have also turned to adaptive reuse of outmoded downtown office buildings and other industrial buildings” (Rutes, et al. 30).

• “Whatever the market, the boutique designer’s mandate is to bring to the project a high level of creativity and originality, to design an ambiance that makes guests feel that they are staying in an exciting place where sleeping is the last thing on their minds” (Rutes, et al. 34).

• “Lobby is popular hang-out” (Ypma 110).

• “Black and white pictures in the ‘thirties’ phone booths are a reminder of the hotel’s legendary history” (Ypma 110).

• “In contrast to the dark and moody lobby the rooms are bright and white” (Ypma 111).

• “The Salon, in contrast to the guest rooms, is purposefully dark, moody, and gothic” (Ypma 111).

HISTORY This St. Louis City Landmark is in between Benton Park National Historic District and Cherokee-Lemp Local Historic District (“Lemp Brewery Complex”). The Lemp Brewery Complex was the site for manufacturing of two of the most successful businesses in American history: William J. Lemp Brewing Company (1894-1922) and the International Shoe Company, or ISCO (1922-1992). “The brewery was more than a workshop, more than a factory, more than an office – it was an outstanding ornament to the community” stated the St. Louis historian Stephen P. Walker (“About Lemp”).

The “father of modern brewing”, Adam Lemp, was the first to produce lager-style beer in the U.S. (“About Lemp”). The site was chosen because of the natural refrigeration provided by the underground caves and ice provided by the nearby Mississippi River.

The Lemp family business grew in success but was eventually sold due to Prohibition and became known as the shoe manufacturing site for ISCO. In the 1960’s ISCO changed their name to Interco and they shifted to selling apparel followed by furniture.

Once these operations ceased, in the 1990s, Interco leased out spaces as a multi-tenant warehouse and industrial complex remaining the current use of the site today (“About Lemp”).

The Lemp family history is widely known for the various tragedies that happened to numerous family members only 0.3 miles away at their own residence, Lemp Mansion.

It is known for its ghost sitings and is considered on of the most haunted places in America (“Lemp Brewery Complex”).
