The Hurst Senior Activity Center’s new home was born from the adaptive reuse of a 1970s big-box retail store.
The transformation of the former Cavender’s Boot Store into the new senior center included retaining a majority of the existing structure and exterior concrete tilt-wall to reduce construction cost, time and landfill waste. The use of local material suppliers bolstered the economy and returned tax revenue to the tax base in the form of a community service.
