A development group that has been active in the Warehouse District has won a duel to buy the 105-year-old Perry-Payne Building.
Grand Arcade apartment developers Robert Rains and John Carney have secured a contract to purchase the structure at 730 W. Superior Ave. The two, in a partnership dubbed Perry-Payne Associates, want to convert the structure to 92 apartments in a rehabilitation project Mr. Rains expects to cost $5 million.
