The Stutz building was built in 1912. It was originally a factory that produced Stutz race cars and automobiles.

In 2023, the building reopened after a $100 million renovation that included new windows, entry-ways and elevators while maintaining historic features.

“A lot of time and resources have gone into revitalizing the building completely to make it an accessibly third place for people to gather,” Macy Lethco, Program manager at Pattern, said. “We just want to draw people to this new gathering space.”
