Sixth Street Exchange is a bold example of architecture that emerged a decade after the Great Chicago Fire of 1871. The "Chicago Commercial Style" included groundbreaking engineering techniques for the era, including the introduction of hydraulic elevators, improved foundation techniques, and steel frameworks making it possible to extend a building's height over six stories. Sixth Street Exchange, formerly known as the Reakirt Building, was designed by Sammuel S. Godley and is an example of the early 20th century Chicago Commercial Style: substantial height, masonry cladding, decorative cornices, and - most notably - vast windows with central glass panels flanked by two narrower glass sashes filling bays horizontally and vertically.
The former Reakirt Building has been revitalized into Sixth Street Exchange, featuring 52 luxury micro-apartments located in Cincinnati's bustling Central Business District. The redesign team took great care to preserve early 20th century elements such as the original hydraulic elevator (not in use today) and maintaining the historic industrial windows. In the early 1920s similar buildings in Chicago were encircled by a trolley; Sixth Street Exchange is directly on the route of The Connector, Cincinnati's streetcar, which navigates a 3.6-mile loop throughout Downtown Cincinnati. With a stop at the corner just outside Sixth Street Exchange, residents enjoy free transportation every day and evening to all areas of Downtown, including The Banks, OTR, Washington Park, Findlay Market, Great American Ballpark, Paycor Stadium, and more. The perfect mix of industrial chic, architectural significance, and prime location, Sixth Street Exchange lets you live, work, and play in the heart of the city.
