Upcoming Event April
Movie Night
Date: April 29, 2019
Time: 6:30-9:00
Where: Gary R. O'Connor - Architect, 8 Coryell Street, Lambertville, NJ
AIAU: Sustainable Multifamily Housing Models- 2 HSW
Case study of complex mixed use residential projects. Developer/architect partnerships were created for these projects, which focused on sustainability.
This course showcases several new mixed use residential developments undertaken by developers who have forged a multi-project collaborative relationship with their architectural firms. These developer/architect partnerships are tackling large and complex sites, and adopting sustainable
approaches to their work, while responding to neighborhood context and meeting specific market housing needs through site and building design innovations.
Working within the Market Octavia plan, this 182 rental project design with ground floor retail contains four and five story buildings and encompasses most of a large city block. The sponsors had to provide a number of public amenities including reconstruction of an alley and a through block pedestrian mews. Avalon Bay selected three architectural firms for different parts of the site to provide architectural variety and different building typologies. The three firms collaborated in linking all three projects to a common shared underground garage, and to the shared inner courtyard open spaces.
