The Foundry at Raymond

We've got a name for our newest project:

700 Raymond is now

The Foundry at Raymond.

Our project is now ready for leasing and we're really excited about how the building is turning out. We have a number of interested parties and anticipate being able to announce our first tenants very soon.

Originally built in the 1920's our building was built as a foundry. Later it was used for over 40 years by National Mower Company, a business owned by the Kinkaid family. They made the large mowers used on golf courses.

We would love to give you a tour of the site. It has lots of windows and will have a beautifully landscaped lot for tenants to enjoy. We've incorporated many green features including reusing wood and brick from other projects. We also are using windows that actually open - something many of our tenants have asked for in the past. The old brick and iron trusses offer a unique feel to the building that you just don't get in today's construction.

Developments continue in Raymond/University Despite COVID

More apartments are planned for 2225 University Avenue (next to the McDonald's) This is the former site of Paster Enterprises office building. We are excited to see more density for the neighborhood and more residents to support our local restaurants and retail.

Congratulations to Dave Anderson!

One of Update Company's long time tenants is awarded a Bush Fellowship. Dave Anderson, from All Parks Alliance for Change is one of the 2020 Bush Fellows, 24 visionary leaders who are thinking big about how to solve problems and shape a better future for their communities. The Bush Fellowship is an investment in individual leaders. It provides Fellows with up to $100,000 over 12 to 24 months to pursue formal and informal learning experiences that help them develop the skills, attributes and relationships they need to become more effective, equitable leaders who can drive change in their communities and region as a whole. The Fellowship is distinctive in its flexibility, allowing Fellows to articulate what they need to become more effective and agile leaders.

Platform Apartments Really Taking Shape!

The construction site is very busy at University and Hampden where the Platform Apartments are under construction. This is going to be a great addition to the neighborhood - replacing two blighted buildings - turning the corner into a beautiful place to live. A roof top patio will be a great amenity, as will the underground parking lot. We are excited for our new neighbors to move in this fall. St. Anthony Park is really growing - adding many new neighbors close to University. Hopefully this development will bring a new restaurant!
