117 units/381 beds plus amenities with restaurant and bar, 171 ksf,18 story, co-living, multi-family tower.

This building holds the unusual distinction of having been designed and permitted as a structural steel, multi-family building first, at the request of the first client and their contractor, convinced they would realize savings from an anomaly in the market place at that time, before being redesigned as a post tensioned concrete structure at the request of a second owner/client.

Designed as a co-living facility targeting young professionals and recent graduates from the surrounding colleges and universities in the area, it originally contained exclusively studios and four bedroom units to be rented by the bedroom. In the subsequent redesign, the program was revised to include more traditional market rate multi-family units as well.
