Inside the largest office renovation project in OTR

The first time Peg Wyant went through the former Strietmann Biscuit Co. Building in Over-the-Rhine, she knew she wanted to buy and redevelop the historic structure. 

Wyant, president and CEO of Over-the-Rhine-based Grandin Properties, envisioned a building that mixed the past with the future just steps from Music Hall and Washington Park.

After announcing plans for the building in January 2016, the property at 235 W. 12th St., now known as the Strietmann Center, is nearly ready for tenants.

“This is where history meets the future,” Wyant told me in the Penthaus space of Strietmann Center.
