Multi-Family Residential

1445 N.W. 16TH AVENUE WORKFORCE HOUSING

  • 17 workforce residential units within ½ mile of Jackson Memorial Hospital.
  • Design evokes the feel of a walk-up Townhouse project in a multi-family Residential building, with entry porches for direct streetfront access and covered canopies for shading.
  • Streetscape design creates a pedestrian-friendly condition with enhanced sidewalk widths, inset landscape islands, and multiple back racks for alternative transportation options.
  • Landscaped “green wall” along rear elevation to soften the façade and bring the landscape design vertically, as well as buffering from the adjacent single-family residence.
  • Building designed to the most stringent resiliency requirements with an over 4-foot raised finished floor from grade to account for future sea level rise.
