The Praetorian Building is a historic 7-story building located at 601 Franklin Avenue in downtown Waco. Designed by the Dallas architectural firm of C. W. Bulger & Co. in the Chicago school or Modern style of architecture, it was built it 1915 by Hughes O'Rourke Construction to house the Praetorian Insurance Company. The Anthem Group team wanted to preserve as much of the original design as possible, so to achieve this, old images were used as a reference when restoring the details of the exterior.

Sanger Heights
1821 Sanger Ave, Waco, TX is a spacious 4-plex multi-family home that contains 4,052 sq ft and was built in 1936. Located just a short drive away from Downtown, Waco and walking distance from Antioch Community Church. This project holds a special place in our heart as this location was once previously known for its bad reputation tied to drugs and violence. Being able to bring back the safety to our neighborhoods and community is important to us, which is why restoration is such a big part of what we do.
