Project Details
After providing a master plan for the redevelopment of this 150-unit affordable family housing complex, To Design produced site construction documents and provided construction administration services for all phases. Phase III is currently under construction, and phase IV is still on the boards.
Originally built over four decades ago, the development occupies a steeply sloping site with buildings terracing down the hillside. Our new design for the site prioritizes pedestrian spaces over parking, humanizing what was once a brutal environment. Amenities include private patios for each unit, two separate playgrounds for children within the entire complex, lush landscape plantings, and pedestrian-scaled ornamental lights.
