E
ach historic renovation and infill project Kilbourne
Group is fortunate to be part of in Downtown
Fargo is unique. Many structures built at the
turn of the century have good bones and
adaptable attitudes. Taken care of, the buildings can
be molded to match modern needs while retaining the
historic value that gives Downtown Fargo its unique
personality. Many majestic buildings were lost to urban
renewal and left behind surface parking lots scattered
throughout the urban neighborhood, leaving missing
teeth in the streetscape.
