The Adelmann Building, Elequantly preserved, is one of Boise’s most Historic, beloved, and valued locations downtown.
The Adelmann Establishment, Built in 1906, was owned by a German miner and a Civil War veteran named Richard Adelmann. The entire building design was influenced by a variety of architectural designs. Most notably, however, is the Chinese influence found in the PAGODA TURRET on the front corner of the building. A Romanesque style is evident in the arched windows that are floor to ceiling in length, while the German influence can be seen in the brick formations. It lends itself to a modern yet San Francisco gold rush.
Although originally it was Stearn’s Motor Car Co. ( large mural on East side of building.) Currently, the three-story building with its 17,600 sq.ft. houses a French restaurant; Cafe’ Paris, a coffee house; Tulley’s, a nightclub; Catecombs, a restaurant -bar; Sapphire Bar & Grill, and an EVENT CENTER; The Adelmann A Woodriver Event Center.
