The Rosemary Apartments at 515 East 8th Street first showed up in Little Rock's Directory (think phone book before phones...) in 1926. At the time, residents are listed for seven apartments. History can be a mystery and at this point, we don't know if in 1926 it was an eight-plex as it is today, with one vacancy, or a seven-plex, with one of the apartments being particularly big and divided later. The building did, however, come out in the middle of the roaring 20s and the large lot size and the twelve-foot-tall ceilings in these apartments tell the story of prosperity at the time of construction. This property is the outlier in the Cromwell Court twelve-building complex. We don't know why the Cromwell architectural firm added the Rosemary apartments to its ambitious rehabilitation project next door, but they did. Because of this, we know that all the apartments, now definitely eight, were restored to the current code in 1979. The Rosemary has turned out to look much better than we thought possible. Her apartments have received a great reception from new tenants. The kitchens and bathrooms have all been redesigned with new plumbing and electrical lines, we have also insured private washer-dryers are in all units. The air conditioning is all-new too, not to mention energy efficient.
