This project is located in an up-and-coming area east of downtown Austin and contains approximately 10,000 square-feet of retail space and 34 residential units, with heavy timber and cross-laminated timber (CLT) structural systems exposed throughout. The ground floor contains shell retail space, while the three upper floors are comprised of apartments, a rooftop terrace, and a PV solar installation. The building is wrapped with planters and a series of vine trellises, and an exterior cantilevered steel stair sets off the otherwise organic façade.
Project Highlights:
• First commercial building in Texas to use CLT as both gravity and lateral system
• 1-Hour CLT floors with exposed ceilings
• 7-ply CLT transfer floor at Level 2
