This is a 350’ long row of 7 buildings, each one housing six residential units over a retail base.

All seven buildings were permitted simultaneously then phased in construction to be built one at a time from South to North.

Inspired by urban compositions like the Rue de Rivoli in Paris, SGW designed the buildings to work both individually and as a coherent group, by varying the height, detailing, and brick color of the facades, then repeating in an ABBABBA pattern.
