Renovate to Eliminate is Sacksteder & Ward’s signature revitalization initiative dedicated to breathing new life into historic Main Street properties. Rooted in a deep respect for architectural heritage and driven by modern construction expertise, the program focuses on restoring aging structures while preserving the character, craftsmanship, and identity that make historic downtowns special.
Through thoughtful renovation, adaptive reuse, and high-quality construction practices, Renovate to Eliminate transforms underutilized buildings into distinctive residential and commercial rental spaces. Each project is carefully designed to blend historic charm with modern functionality—creating spaces that are not only beautiful, but practical, efficient, and built for long-term use.
More than renovation, this program is about community investment. By revitalizing historic properties, Renovate to Eliminate helps strengthen local economies, support small businesses, increase housing opportunities, and contribute to the long-term sustainability of Main Street districts. The result is vibrant, walkable communities where history, commerce, and modern living come together—ensuring these iconic buildings remain active, valued, and thriving for generations to come.

I can’t say enough good things about Sacksteder & Ward. Beyond being responsive and professional landlords, their commitment to our community truly sets them apart. They are intentionally bringing life back to Main Street by investing in historic buildings, restoring them with care, and preserving the character that makes each space unique. The renovation work done on my storefront was exceptional — thoughtfully updated while still honoring the building’s historic roots. It’s clear they don’t believe in one-size-fits-all renovations; they respect the story of each building while making it functional and beautiful for modern businesses. Sacksteder & Ward is actively helping revitalize our community, strengthen local business, and ensure Main Street continues to thrive. I’m incredibly grateful to be a tenant and proud to operate my business in a space they’ve restored with such intention and care.
