The Foundry represents the next phase of development at The Levee, downtown’s newest community landing. Located at 30 Upper Falls Rd., The Foundry will feature 22,513 s/f of commercial space with riverfront views in a historic, redeveloped structure.
The development costs of the project total over $8 million.
