Borden Lofts will have the charm of a restored historic building coupled with a completely refurbished interior. From restored hardwood floors to exposed wood beam supports, painted brick and new double sheetrock divider walls, each Loft will be like a new house, (new electrical, plumbing, and heating systems, etc) but with the charm of large windows and restored wood found only in historic buildings.
