Dear Council Members:
The enclosed Real Property Tax Abatement Petition and
resolutions are filed by Enterprise Associates, an Indiana
partnership, for a rehabilitation project to be located at 903
S. Main Street.
Enterprise Associates intends to rehabilitate the 45,000
square foot South Bend Carton Building, located at 903 S. Main
Street, for a mixture of new uses including loft office space
and limited retail use.
Built in 1898, the South Bend Carton Company building has
undergone a variety of uses in its 87 year history. Recent
times have seen it fall prey to the perils of an extended
vacancy. Although water damage and the absence of a heating
plant were major concerns, the structural function of the
building was superb and represents one of the last post and beam
constructed buildings in the City. Letters of intent have been
executed for one-half of the existing 45,000 square feet with
occupancy to occur immediately after rehabilitation.
Members of the Enterprise Associates partnership are James
A. Cook and Michael F. Boehm.
The property in question is located within an allocation
area designed by the Common Council. It is estimated that the
value of this property after completion of the proposed project
will be $600,000. It is likewise estimated that the project
will create at least six new, permanent fulltime jobs as its
direct result.
