Andy Zimmerman creating Studio 503

Andy Zimmerman, shown here renovating 503 E. Washington Street in downtown Greensboro last year, received a grant of $150,000 for two projects on Lewis Street. Zimmerman says he would like to see less bureaucracy involved in getting the money because it can sometimes put a drag on finishing a project.

Artist Devon McKnight (left) talks with Andy Zimmerman on Dec. 5, 2017, during renovation of 503 E. Washington Street into a place for artist, photographer and musician studios. Zimmerman says he’s not sure all of the city’s economic development programs have reached the level of flexibility where they can assist every type of proposal. “We need to get more innovative,” he said. “We need to get more creative. And I think we need to get more aggressive.”

Andy Zimmerman, shown here renovating 503 E. Washington Street in downtown Greensboro last year, received a grant of $150,000 for two projects on Lewis Street. Zimmerman says he would like to see less bureaucracy involved in getting the money because it can sometimes put a drag on finishing a project.

The brick building dates from 1938. “It adds to the cool factor in our city, which we need for the young people,” Zimmerman says of his project. “The more that’s done in Greensboro, the more attractive we will become to younger people and startup businesses.”

Andy Zimmerman is renovating 503 East Washington Street, naming it Studio 503, that will be filled by artist, photographer and musician studios along with LimeBike, on Tuesday, Dec. 5, 2017, in Greensboro, N.C.

Zimmerman says he’s not sure all of the city’s economic development programs have reached the level of flexibility where they can assist every type of proposal. “We need to get more innovative,” he said. “We need to get more creative. And I think we need to get more aggressive.”
