The Tilsner proved that Artspace could rescue a historic building even in an advanced state of decay and transform it into a functioning, productive piece of the community. The individuals and families who reside at the Tilsner today are part of a Lowertown neighborhood that didn't exist two decades ago but now ranks as one of Saint Paul's liveliest and most desirable places to live.

A Victorian survivor
When Artspace first saw the Tilsner Warehouse, it had no windows or roof, and parts of the upper two floors were too decayed to bear human weight. In a $9.1 million overhaul, Artspace transformed this 1895 relic, a striking example of Victorian Romanesque architecture, into a thriving community of 66 individuals and families.Each live/work unit at the Tilsner offers high ceilings, pine floors, exposed brick walls, wood beams, large windows, and modern kitchens and baths.
