Construction on the Habitat Center is Underway

The Habitat Center

In addition to working on residential homes with our partner families, we are currently building a new home for our affiliate. Located at 230 Ellicott Street, the Habitat Center will soon become the home to both our affiliate main office and the ReStore. In September 2010, Chuck Brumsted donated the property to us. To many people, the building is remembered as Cristina’s Italian Bistro which was partially destroyed by a fire in 2008. Currently, we’ve obtained a building permit and the renovation project has begun.

*Special thanks to R.A. Haitz Co. for donating their time, labor, and materials towards completing the entire Habitat Center roof. To learn more about R.A. Haitz Co. and their services, check out their website. http://www.rahaitz.com
