Preservation & Restoration

In addition to performing seismic and ADA and HVAC updgrades, Blach was selected to remodel the famous Allied Arts Guild buildings. Situated on three acres in the heart of a residential area, the Spanish-Eclectic-style buildings, designed by architect Gardner Dailey and artist Pedro De Lemos, were built around 1929 with wood-framed construction, ivory adobe plaster and heavy clay roof tiles.
