Noxzema got its start in Maryland and became famous for its skin cream in little blue glass jars. \nThe building has been transformed into a vibrant mixed-use community of apartments and artist workspaces. Many of the building’s original features have been retained and restored including the original maple wood flooring\, glass block windows\, soaring 15’ factory ceilings\, and massive mushroom shaped concrete columns. The renovation was designed to meet the requirements of both National and State Historic tax credits. \nThe result is a decidedly modern mixed use building that celebrates its industrial origins. It includes 96 loft style and studio apartments with original concrete floors and modern kitchens\, studio artist space and gallery\, and common areas including a theater\, gym\, and pool. \nLearn about its transformation from the architect. \nAbout the Presenter \nJessica Damseaux\, AIA\, is a Principal at Alexander Design Studio and was Project Manager/Architect for the Fox Building.

Launched in 1987\, BAF encourages people to explore Baltimore architecture: to be mindful of the area’s history\, and recognize Baltimore’s architectural heritage\, and appreciate its design innovations. \nThrough its tours\, lectures\, educational programs for adults and kids\, exhibitions\, research\, and publications\, the BAF demonstrates how ideas are manifested in the built environment and urban design of the city. \nAbout Baltimore Heritage  \nFounded in 1960\, Baltimore Heritage\, Inc. is Baltimore’s nonprofit historic and architectural preservation organization.
