This two-story, unreinforced masonry (URM) building with a partial basement is located in the heart of Lemoore’s Historic District. The Antlers Hotel was very close to being demolished when the city set out to revitalize the landmark property in 2002. The URM walls, with significant cracks crushed under the weight of the roof, were anchored to the roof and 2nd floor diaphragms, and steel braced frames were added to the open front to help stabilize the building. Challenges included keeping ground floor businesses open with minimal impact to tenants during construction. Miyamoto retained as much historic fabric as possible while accommodating modern residential reuse, stabilizing the structure, reconstructing the cornice, rehabilitating the facade and revitalizing the landmark.
