With a site located near the center of
downtown Forest Park, it was important for
the building to be sensitive to the urban
edge of the existing streetscape. Through
the master planning process, Tria
Architecture proposed a four story solution
containing retail space on the first floor
and six condominium units above. The brick
and stone front elevation weaves itself into
the fabric of the neighboring buildings by
pushing the upper floors away from the
sidewalk and providing two different cornice
heights along the street edge.
