Historic building renovation brings excitement to surrounding businesses

WACO, TX — The historic building, previously known as the Bank of America building, and before that the Strand Theater, is getting some much needed renovations.

Built in 1920, these upgrades will hopefully preserve the building’s beauty for another 100 years to come.

The contractors on the job have created a 55,000 square-foot space from the original 35,000, but there is still some work to be done before the building is completely finished.

Surrounding businesses are excited as they’ve wondered and watched for years on what this building will become.

“They’ve been pretty much gutting it for over a year,” said Michael Suttle, manager at Dichotomy Coffee and Spirits.
