All About Us
The Story:
Downtown Dwellings founders, Mark Brown and Jill Judy are dedicated to purchasing distressed buildings in the heart of the historic areas of downtown Little Rock, Arkansas. They thoughtfully restore each property, restoring the architectural features while adding modern elements and conveniences.
“We believe that by preserving these wonderful historic properties, both homes and commercial buildings, and creating in them quality living space for today’s lifestyle makes our community a better place.” Jill Judy, co-owner.
Each apartment is unique; each building has a character all its own. The company has restored and created apartment homes and urban lofts from hundred-year-old houses, school buildings, even a former church. The neighborhoods as well have their own special character, with some among quiet, shade-lined streets, others nearer to the bustle of downtown.
“Downtown Dwellings offers more than a place to live. It is all
about community, and neighbors, and saving these beautiful old neighborhoods. We invite you to become part of it.”
– Mark Brown, co-owner.
