DWSP moves to 515 North Cherry Street

The Downtown Winston-Salem Partnership (DWSP) is proud to announce that it is moving its offices to 515 N. Cherry Street on November 1.  The new office space is 2,250 square feet with 1,250 SF on the 1st floor and 1,000 SF in the basement.  The owner of the property is affiliated with Mast General Stores.  This new office space is directly across the street from the Convention Center and brings a vacant building back into full activity.  The owners of the property have spent a considerable funds renovating the building with the building interior being completely demolished, removed, and rebuilt.  The construction contractor for the building is LMI Builders.  The facade and signage was designed by Stitch Design Shop. The commercial broker for the project on behalf of the building owner was Meridian Realty.  

The DWSP is moving from the Chatham Building at 305 W. Fourth Street which it has been at since 2008 due to the new owner converting the second floor of the Chatham Building into apartments.  The tenants on the ground floor Washington Perk and A/perture Cinema will not change.  

The Downtown Winston-Salem Partnership would like share its gratitude to our legal counsel who represented our interests in this transaction, Kelly Otis, Partner, Akerman, LLP.  We would also like to thank the Downtown Winston-Salem Foundation for their support and assistance with this endeavor.
