A Bit of History

The Bridgers Building/Church Street Apartments stands  as one of Tarboro’s most successful mixed-use developments, uniquely  blending historic preservation with modern functionality.

Following a $3 million restoration in 2002,  the Bridgers Building was seamlessly integrated with the historic  Church Street Hotel, creating a vibrant hub of residential and  commercial activity. Today, the property features 11 distinctive apartments and 6 prime commercial/retail spaces, all located at the strategic corner of Main and Church Streets in the heart of the Historic Tarboro Commercial District.

This award-winning redevelopment was more than a restoration—it was a catalyst for downtown revitalization.  Rising from the devastation of Hurricane Floyd’s floods, the project  breathed new life into Main Street and set the stage for a wave of  growth. Its success spurred further investment, including the launch of Tarboro Brewing Company, the Edgecombe County Veterans’ Military Museum, and the ongoing restoration of the iconic Colonial Theater.

Now  an anchor property within Tarboro’s commercial core, the Bridgers  Building represents not only a sound real estate investment but also a  piece of the town’s comeback story—making it an asset of both financial  and cultural significance.
