The interior courtyard for the 212 unit multi-family maximizes the site’s exterior open space while bringing daylight into each of the units. The generous courtyard is a private amenity for residents and opens towards the south to engage the pedestrian route from the Luas Station. A pedestrian opening at the north creates a mid-block circuit for residents linking to the park planned for just north. The street edge conforms to the urban grid while the interior open spaces offer surprise with animated courtyards and diverse scales/massing. The irregularly shaped courtyard is designed to maximize daylight into apartments and capture early morning and late afternoon light. Breaks in the east and west sides building walls are shaped to a residential scale and capture the sunlight and views.
