The conversion of a nearly 100-year-old tannery complex into a mixed-use, mixed-income historic development in downtown Sheboygan, Wisconsin. The project includes 118 one- to four-bedroom loft-style apartments and 8,700 square feet of commercial space. With interior parking and ample shared amenities, Badger State Lofts serves low- and middle-income families, with units reserved for households earning 50%–70% of the area median income.
Reactivating a largely vacant industrial complex, Badger State Lofts is a key part of downtown Sheboygan’s revitalization and a catalyst for the City and County’s Innovation District master plan — a live-work-play hub for innovation, entrepreneurship, employment, and education.
Badger State Lofts was made possible through funding awarded from 4% Federal and State LIHTC, Federal and State Historic Tax credits, awards from the Wisconsin Housing and Economic Development Authority (WHEDA) including Capital Magnet Funds and Tax-Exempt Bonds, City and County EPA Grants and TIF Financing.
