Video of the Building  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dxvYc6a28sg

The Ensenberger building at 212 N Center Street is a classic building in the center of downtown Bloomington, Illinois. 

 

The colorful terra-cotta medallions and ornate indoor decorations make the seven-story an attractive addition to the city.

In 2008 the original 1910 building plus the 1926 seven-story addition was re-opened as a residential condo complex.

 

The lobby has an array of historic design elements, architectural details and an aura of grandeur. Modern upgrades along with marble finishes, the grand staircase and masterful plasterwork combine t

o create an elegant arrival experience.

Residential design elements include stainless steel appliances, a variety of wood floorings including some wide plank and some Brazilian cherry, granite countertops, ceramic tiled baths, some units include a whirlpool tub, some have a bidet in 
the owner's bedroom, and closet space with built-in drawers. The extended ceiling heights give a loft-like appeal with exposed piping, conduit and ductwork.


The building has a fitness room, a club room with kitchen, a crafts room, a storage area, and a dog run for your furry friends.

Move-In Day

Contact someone on board to let them know your move-in day. They will get the moving pads put up in the elevator. It is a good idea to arrive very early on move-in day to secure a parking spot immediately in front of the building. By 7:30 am most spots out front are still open and by 8:30 am are filling in again. As they say, the early bird ...........

Common Area Photographs
















Back in the summer of 1925 iron workers were completing the steel frame for the new Ensenberger’s furniture store high rise. This seven-story beauty was designed by local architect Arthur L. Pillsbury. It opened in May 1926, but Pillsbury had been killed in an automobile accident the previous October.The furniture store closed in the mid-1990s, and today it’s a condominium building.
