Historic preservation is central to the project's design philosophy. The development team intends to respect the defining architectural features of the existing buildings while creating modern, functional spaces for residents, businesses, and visitors.
Experience Beyond Historic Buildings
Rux's experience also includes multifamily residential development. She served as project manager and Architect of Record for Saddle Ridge Multifamily Phase 2 in Cheyenne, a 116-unit apartment development.
Her work on residential, commercial, and adaptive reuse projects brings a broad perspective to The Draper's combination of affordable housing and commercial redevelopment.
Beyond her professional practice, Rux has contributed to the architectural and cultural communities through service on the Cheyenne Historic Preservation Board, the Museum of Art Fort Collins board, and professional architecture initiatives.
