Clean lines and state of the art design abound throughout. Cool walls accented with warm wood frames and crisp lighting creates an environment of comfort and relaxation. Hardwood floors, granite countertops and stainless steel appliances reach through each unit, adding to the luxurious feel of texture and pattern found within.

The site was small and extremely tight, so the design and construction had to be implemented perfectly. Additionally, the site already had a parking garage, so this piece was incorporated into the new building. The project features quite a bit of brick cladding, which added more complexity to the project as well.
Designers and developers met with the city and zoning councils multiple times. The city had sex extremely high standards for the design of the project. The construction team had to adhere to the original elevations throughout the entire process. No changes were allowed to be made.
