Data is assumed to be accurate. neW oWneR FoR olD WateRWoRks A Harrisburg-based design and engineering company has purchased the historic Old Waterworks building on the Susquehanna River, with plans to turn it into its new headquarters. Andculture will relocate from its downtown offices following the full renovation of the 22,000-square-foot building, said co-owner David Hickethier. e Waterworks is one of only two structures remaining within the confines of Riverfront Park. Portions of the Front Street building date to 1841. e building served as a pumping station for Harrisburg until 1972, when that use ended following severe flooding caused by Tropical Storm Agnes. e city later converted it into an office building. In 2002, Mann Realty, a real estate firm, bought the building. Andculture acquired the property from Mann Realty, which is in Chapter 7 bankruptcy, for $1.25 million, according to the Dauphin County property database. "It's a very unique building," Hickethier said. " ere are only two on that side of Front Street, right on the river." Hickethier expects Andculture, a company he co-owns with partners Josh Benton and Evan Keller, to occupy the majority of the building for its main offices and for its business accelerator, Catamaran. e company may lease out some of the remaining space, especially to complementary businesses, and would like to reserve a portion for public use, possibly for meetings and receptions, Hickethier said. Hickethier and his partners plan to mount a complete restoration. e work includes removing drop ceilings, restoring floors, opening up spaces and making substantial repairs. neW sanitation aPP Sanitation and recycling services in Harrisburg are about to get a little more user-friendly. e city last month announced a new app called Recycle Coach, which allows residents to get the latest information on sanitation services, schedules, what and where to recycle, collection requirements and more. "[e app provides] details people need to understand, like the way food could potentially contaminate recyclables," said Mayor Eric Papenfuse. "e app addresses all this, and it's really interesting, easy to use and fun." Already used in other states and countries, Recycle Coach is now available for Harrisburg residents. e app is personalized via language, building type (apartment or home) and address. Using that information, six tabs on the home screen offer users various types of functionality, information and additional options. John Rarig, Harrisburg's recycling coordinator, said that the Recycle Coach app will help the city get sanitation information out to the public quicker. "is app will allow us to update information as things change [such as] weather problems and things that we can notify the populous about," he said. "[Recycle Coach] is very easy to work with, and we think this is a great thing for Harrisburg." Harrisburg residents can access Recycle Coach not only from their smartphones, but also via computers and voice assistants such as Alexa. "I feel that [the app] really empowers people to become better recyclers and take a greater interest in what they are doing," Papenfuse said. "I encourage everyone to download it on their phones. It's quick. It took just a few seconds to download." Harrisburg Beer Week last month presented a check for $40,000 to Harrisburg River Rescue and Emergency Services, the beneficiary of the 10-day-long celebration of local craft beer. For the past several years, the River Rescue has used the funds to continue the renovation of its headquarters. Homeland Center last month dedicated its 6th Street entrance in memory of the late John Crain Kunkel, a U.S. congressman, and his wife Katherine, who served on the board of managers and established what is believed to be the first-ever beauty shop in a long-term care facility, according to the Harrisburg-based care facility. More recently, the Kunkel family made possible Homeland's 71-bed skilled care nursing pavilion, and their foundation sponsored Homeland's 150th Gala, said Homeland. Percel Eiland resigned last month as a member of the Harrisburg school board, having only served about six months. e board will now take steps to find a candidate to fill the remainder of Eiland's term, which runs until the end of next year. so noteD • Kensington St., 2004: JCB Associates & State House Group to A.
