RT 216
Ruby Tuesday sought to renovate a former gas station/furniture store in downtown Maryville into a restaurant, meeting space and fitness facility for its employees. JAI worked with longstanding client Ruby Tuesday to develop a unique, exceptionally detailed and unexpected interior with a very complementary exterior facade and landscape. Employees working at the company’s headquarters could walk east one block to RT 216 for lunch, fitness activities and other employee-based services.

A stunning example of what can be done with a most mundane building. An exciting transformation full of references to the former life of the original building. We applaud the commitment and enthusiasm brought to this urban revitalization. A national restaurant chain could easily have done this on a suburban highway retail strip but instead chose to enhance not only the lives of their employees but also the city.
