THE WEDGE COWORKING AND EVENTS SPACE IN ALTON ILLINOIS OLD BUILDING A PLACE WIRED FOR CONNECTION.png

The Wedge was constructed in 1904 as a wedge-shaped building designed by Victor J. Klutho. It resides on the “Y” at East Broadway and Henry Streets. The Elfgen Building, built in 1868-69, spans the west half of the triangular block known as the Wedge, from East Broadway to 3rd Street.

The Wedge building project comprises the renovation of the historic Wedge Bank and Elfgen building that make up the 600 block of East Broadway in the heart of Alton’s historic business district.
