Wellness Village Construction
The Wellness Village is moving in to this older single-story structure on Pennsylvania just east of Harris Methodist in the Near Southside, and they’re adding on vertically with the construction you see above. It’s definitely one of the more unique projects underway at the moment. We think we’ll have to wait until construction is pretty much finished before we can judge how the building’s going to look – what do you think about it?
What’s a Wellness Village?
Bonnie,
Even the mighty Google is not especially helpful on that question. I did find the following:

Beyond that, I really am not sure.
I actually find re-adaptive use projects such as this one are very interesting. I look forward to seeing the finished product.
I’ve been watching this project for the last two weeks and am impressed with the costruction and design for the addition thus far. It would be great if you could post pictures of the street corner view of the building with the consecutive square windows along what looks like a skinny wall/skylight. It has a good nostalgic feel. Very throw back.
