TOLEDO, OH, July 13, 2018 /24-7PressRelease/ -- The Douglas Company, general contractor, is pleased to announce the completion of construction on The Tower on the Maumee luxury apartments, located on the Maumee River in the downtown area of Toledo, Ohio.
This $21.7 million project was the redevelopment of the top 11 floors of a 30-story office tower. With construction complete in March 2018, The Douglas Company, owner George F. Eyde Family, LLC, and Quinn Evans Architects hope to breathe new life into this "glass city" historic landmark.
This new residential development offers elegance and a sleek design. One hundred six apartments provide spacious floor plans between 719 and 1,265 square feet with one or two bedrooms. All units come equipped with stainless steel appliances, including a full-size washer and dryer, granite counter tops and islands, Italian tile floors, and 7 foot panoramic windows affording stunning views of downtown Toledo and the Maumee River.
The Tower on the Maumee, formerly the Fiberglas Tower, was originally constructed in 1969. The Tower was the World headquarters of the Owens-Corning Fiberglas Company for more than 20 years; however, the building sat vacant many years following Owens Corning's relocation to a new campus on the banks of the Maumee River. The Eyde Company purchased the Tower in 1998. In 2012, the Tower on the Maumee, the first "mid-century modern historical structure" in Ohio, was added to the National Register of Historic Places. In October 2016, The Douglas Company began construction on the redevelopment, and the building was officially renamed The Tower on the Maumee.
