Academy Flats photo update, 11/28/07

A long-vacant former school building in Covington's Peaselburg neighborhood is now fully occupied.

Academy Flats, formerly the Fifth District School, has been transformed into 26 units of senior-citizen housing by the Model Group.

The restoration features tin ceilings, wood floors and wood-framed windows.

At a recent meeting of the Cincinnati Preservation Association, the rehabilitation was one of 11 recipients of its annual Preservation Awards.
