Upstate Contracting transformed this 1,200-square-foot historic shell into a modern office upfit while preserving the character that makes the building unique.

Exposed brick walls, original window openings, and existing structural elements were carefully maintained, then paired with crisp drywall, clean ceiling planes, and updated lighting to create a bright, flexible workspace.

The floor plan was reworked to accommodate two code-compliant bathrooms and a dedicated storage closet without disrupting the long, open feel of the main room. New mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems were integrated discreetly into the architecture, giving the client the performance of a new build inside the envelope of a historic structure.

For their Anderson location, Upstate Contracting delivered a clean, modern upfit that reflects the brand’s energy while standing up to the daily wear of high foot traffic.

Run In needed a space that would feel welcoming to everyday runners and serious athletes alike, with clear sightlines, flexible merchandising, and durable finishes. The Anderson storefront required selective structural and interior updates to create an open layout, improve product visibility, and support a smooth flow from entry to checkout.​

Upstate Contracting coordinated the renovation to minimize disruption to operations and align with brand standards already established at the Greenville and Simpsonville locations. From storefront improvements to interior details, every decision was made with long‑term maintenance, comfort, and usability in mind
