York Place
York Place is a 2.5 story building located on the Downtown Mall between First Street S and Second Street SW. It contains a collection of restaurants, shops, and 20 rental apartments. It was developed by Chuck Lewis and is owned by York Property, which keeps its headquarters in the building. York Place opened on November 30, 1995, replacing the former Rose's building and establishing Lewis as the top residential landlord on the Mall.[1] The building is named after York, an African-American explorer on the Lewis and Clark expedition. It features plaques, artwork, and boulders commemorating the expedition.[2]
