The 111,300 square foot multifamily community creates 92 one-, two-, and three-bedroom luxury units with more than 5,800 square feet of street-level retail. This contextual yet modern development serves as a gateway and hub, tying together previously disparate city districts with a vital mix of uses while activating an underutilized asset for the city.

The industrial-influenced interiors feature exposed ductwork, unfinished concrete-simulated tile, robust geometric shapes and rich metal finishes while creating an expression of warmth with saturated color, abstract art, and comfortable furniture choices.
