The buildings here at 511 Mechanics Alley have been used for stables and storage, and run by blacksmiths, tinsmiths and actual Smiths (We’re not the first. In fact, in 1923, a Smith nearly burnt this place to the ground). Today, after a full restoration, we’re honored to carry on its proud tradition and history as a unique place to live, work and play.
