Although the ground floor was occupied by a series of retail establishments, the upper floors were abandoned for many years. The building was renovated and converted into a Hotel Indigo by Hanini Developers[4] and opened in August 2014.[5][6][7][8]

In 2021, the hotel and building were sold to Baldwin Equities, who subsequently converted it into a luxury apartment complex named Indigo Residence. The apartments offers a choice between studio and loft layouts. The rent structure is all-inclusive, covering high-speed Wi-Fi, electricity, cooling, and heating in a single monthly charge. Each apartment is fully furnished with space-maximizing Italian furniture, features Calacata gold countertops, and includes spacious, spa-inspired bathrooms.
