The Ely Building was built in 1903 as the home and office for Dr. S. M. Miller. The property was purchased with the goal of rehabilitating the space into a family home. A new modern steel stair with open risers was inserted which provides access and serves as a light monitor bringing light through the building from the roof to the basement.

The restrained yet sophisticated materials palette, including wide plank natural finish white oak floors, lacquered white cabinets, and statuary marble backsplashes, complements the historic nature of the property.
