In renovating the 100-year-old Eagle Warehouse into housing (800 units + 35,000 sf amenity space), we treated the existing historic structure like a palimpsest. We maintained traces of the original structure and its industrial history as we authored its residential future. Our design of the amenity spaces (lobby, lounges, rental office, library, gym, children’s room, corridors, rooftop and elevator lobbies), preserves and reveals the unique, brutal elegance of the existing industrial structure while delivering community-driven public spaces that capture an uncomplicated, relaxed luxury.
