The buildings include the Phinney Building, New Bedford Dry Goods, the AE Coffin Building, the Haste Building and the Eddy Building. The buildings are located on Union, Pleasant, and Purchase Streets in New Bedford's historic district.

New electrical, cable, broad-band internet, plumbing, heating and air conditioning systems have been installed.
