The Hardwick Building is a 30,000 square foot former fabricating plant at 2308 1st Avenue South which housed the Birmingham operations of the Hardwick Company from 1909 until 2020, when it was purchased by Bayer Properties for redevelopment as The Harwick on the Rotary Trail.
The Hardwick Company originally used the site for a grain and seed warehouse, and later housed a janitorial supply division there, and later a soft drink distributor. Most recently it was equipped as a steel fabricator, with a large overhead crane in the main building.
Williams Blackstock Architects was commissioned to design the $24 million renovations, which are expected to add 20,000 feet of additional floor space, including a ground floor plaza with seating for a restaurant or bar. The project includes photoelectric cells on the roof.
