Porter Produce Warehouse

The historic Porter Produce Warehouse had gradually fallen into a state of disrepair that compromised both the structure and aesthetic of the building.

As part of a joint effort between the City of Fayetteville and Walton Arts Center to renovate the historic Porter Produce Warehouse, Ellingson Contracting was awarded the first phase of the project to stabilize and refurbish the structure and exterior of the existing building.

The stabilization process involved meticulously removing, cleaning, reconstructing, and repointing the exterior brick, installing new concrete and stone foundations at the west end of the building, re-supporting the existing roof structure, fabricating and installing new period-specific wood doors and windows to match the originals, and constructing a new exterior deck that replicates the historical elevated platform condition
