     The Field Company made the decision to close the Evanston store in in 1987.  The property was purchased by Centrum Properties.  This was a developer that specialized in building rennovations.  They enlisted the services of Booth Hansen and associates ( Chicago architectural firm).  This firm developed a renovation plan for the project.

     The new design resulted in 52 apartments and 40,000 square feet of retail space.  A new roof was installed.  New windows were put in place.  Total cost was $10,000,000.   Building was renamed the Galleria.
