A new chapter is beginning for a formerly vacant building in Shawano’s downtown.
Heather Pahl, co-owner of Martin Jewelers, 148 S. Main St., is repurposing the building into a renovated space that combines residential and commercial uses. The renovations add character to the historic building, but perhaps more importantly, they address the city’s need for additional housing.
“Employees in Shawano can’t find housing and are living out of town and commuting in,” Pahl said. “In order to bring back that vibrancy downtown, second-story housing is critical.”
