Two more examples of gentle density from Hamilton's lower city and one example of a commercial to residential loft conversion from the heart of downtown. The first two are buildings that have been sharing their streets with single-family homes for more than a Century. These buildings are part of the character of these neighbourhoods while also happening to provide much-needed housing. While the third is a The Hamilton Spectator warehouse building in the middle of Hamilton's downtown that was converted into residential lofts, with an addition to provide extra units with rooftop balconies. All beautiful examples of the diversity of Hamilton's housing stock and how old buildings like these can still be really desirable places to live. #Housing #Density #GentleDensity #RentalHousing #Condos #Lofts #LoftConversions #Home #History #HamOnt #RandomMusings

I wish Welland would do the same with some of the buildings we have in our downtown core. So many vacant buildings, but all we hear is that developers don't want to spend the money converting. 🤷🏻♀️
I'm not usually a fan of painting brick, but this one looks fantastic. The other, the red brick one, just gorgeous😎😎.

5moGreat examples of how old buildings can be repurposed for modern living while preserving the character of the neighborhood. It's encouraging to see the diversity of Hamilton's housing stock and how it meets the needs of its residents. #Housing #Density #GentleDensity #RentalHousing #Condos #Lofts #LoftConversions #Home #History #
