Street 275 Progress

Basic, exterior and interior architectural design is finished, but will likely be tweaked with our next step. We are now on to mechanical, electrical and plumbing design for this 14-story, luxury apartment building. This part of the design process is not very sexy but crucial and tedious. We have a couple months of work ahead of us in this effort. Once this design reflects our combined best efforts, I will spend several thousands of dollars having outside architects and mechanical engineers critique our work and look for inefficiencies, ergonomic awkwardness and any other structural/layout issues.

In my view, as a humble small developer, the 'heavy-lifting' is getting the proper design and materials concisely and clearly planned and illustrated with as small a margin of error as possible. Physical construction is the easy part.


This building was just constructed for $8,000.00 and will be demolished in a couple years when the mid-rise building is finished. The purpose of this temporary construction is providing meals, showers and laundry services to 50 workers.

This is a 40 foot cargo-container we have converted to half office - half materials storage.

Just moving in.
