The recent update at 1 Java Street in Brooklyn shows the progress of the two-tower development since our last update 🏗 The taller 37-story tower is still rising as the shorter, 20-story structure is topped out. There will be 834 units across both buildings with 30% of the units reserved for affordable housing. In addition to retail at the base of the development, there is an 18,000 SF esplanade along the East River built following the Waterfront Alliance’s Waterfront Edge Design Guidelines (WEDG). More updates to come as completion is estimated in late 2025!

Delighted to share the ongoing development of the Build-to-Rent (BTR) @homeapartmentsau in Parramatta. This architectural marvel, currently in construction, promises to redefine Parramatta's skyline. Integrating a distinctive blend of traditional tower form and street wall, its strategic location on the eastern fringe of the city center ensures breathtaking views. The design meticulously orchestrates a dialogue between the ground, street, city, sun, and sky, with sky terraces delicately mitigating the building's mass and creating a unique urban habitat. As the BTR model gains traction, its profound impact on housing supply becomes evident, offering a crucial solution to Australia's housing shortage. With a scarcity of housing options, BTR emerges as a compelling solution, addressing the pressing need for diverse accommodation. This project not only exemplifies architectural innovation but also underscores the societal benefits of embracing BTR in the evolving urban fabric of Parramatta. We are excited to contribute to the growth of this housing typology and its potential to shape the future of urban living in Australia.

M5, a 25-storey, mass timber rental housing tower, one of the tallest in the world, will be the first residential building constructed at Main Alley, a tech campus in the Mount Pleasant area of Vancouver. The structure will be built on an existing surface parking lot. It will be a net-zero lifecycle carbon tower. That means it’s being designed to minimize both operational and embodied carbon and will have the same impact on the environment as if it was never built. The project, proposed by Westbank Corp. and Henriquez Partners Architects, was given the green light recently by Vancouver City Council. It will be 260 feet tall and have 210 rental homes. Gregory Henriquez, managing principal of the architectural firm, says the tower will be “beautiful and poetic.” The panels of the exterior wall assembly will resemble the scales of a pine cone. The intention is to make the M5 mass timber tower a replicable prototype to help British Columbia achieve a significant reduction in lifecycle carbon emissions, while addressing the crisis of affordable housing. “It is an open-source prototype for mass timber,” says Henriquez. “Open-source means we are willing to share our drawings and ideas to the public at large. We are proposing this project is also a net-zero-carbon building. This is a hybrid mass timber project which is almost 67 per cent timber.” The cross-laminated timber (CLT) components will be manufactured off-site. The structure will have mass timber floor slabs, steel columns and beams and a concrete core for elevator and staircase wells. https://lnkd.in/gDmyNnBY

The neighborhood of Far Rockaway in Queens, NY sought to revitalize a site that through careful planning and design could provide a new gateway into the community. American Hydrotech got involved to provide a solution for the building’s amenity decks by providing our Protected Membrane Roof Assembly with a key component being DuPont Performance Building Solutions' Styrofoam™ Brand Plazamate™ XR Foam Insulation. This new and improved insulation was critical to solve the building's low parapet height and allowed a full assembly to fit within the building requirements. Styrofoam™ XR provides an R-Value of 6.7 per inch, which meant that the total assembly height was reduced, all while maintaining and surpassing required insulation standards.

Anew approach to mass timber and concrete hybrid design has been brought forward in prototype form by global architecture firm Arcadis. It’s called Re:Treat. Proposed for a yet-to-be announced client in Texas, the 17-storey building offers 12 residential floors above a five-storey podium containing parking and street level retail space. Re:Treat’s objective is to not only achieve a carbon footprint reduction of approximately 45 per cent versus a traditional concrete structure, but to do so in an economical, feasible manner that meets the latest mass timber design regulations outlined in the 2024 International Building Code (IBC https://lnkd.in/gvwu3AnF

HILLS SHOWGROUND VILLAGE CONSTRUCTION UPDATE With 2024 well under way, Deicorp’s construction teams have been hard at work delivering the homes that Sydney wants and needs. Our Hills Showground Village project has enjoyed good progress over the past three months, as Luke Fitzgerald, Deicorp’s Site Manager shares in this latest Construction Update. Significant milestones have been reached, with the ground floor 100% formed and poured. Forming has begun on level one, and all six basement levels have been completed successfully. With an average of 1500-2000 cubic metres of concrete being poured each week, we are on track to deliver Showground Village on schedule. Looking ahead, we will continue construction of the podium, extending through to level 2, where the residential towers will commence. With 430 apartments across four buildings, Hills Showground Village forms part of nearly 1,700 apartments Deicorp is delivering along the Sydney Metro Northwest. It’s why Deicorp is Sydney’s leading builder of transport-connected homes. DEICORP. DESIGN. DEVELOP.

The project has two clear lessons for governments everywhere, writes Alex Bozikovic: Renovation can be a powerful strategy, and hiring the right designers is crucial. #architecture #building #libraries
"The project has two clear lessons for governments everywhere: Renovation can be a powerful strategy, and hiring the right designers is crucial." My piece on an excellent Toronto Public Library renovation by LGA Architectural Partners. I have to note, though, that this is a good result from a bad system. The architects are badly paid and the City of Toronto seemed ready to demolish a significant public building.

🚨 Breaking News: Milwaukee to Build 50-Storey Timber Tower? 🌐 The tallest mass timber building could soon rise over a snow pile in Milwaukee! The City of Milwaukee has selected The Neutral Project—developers of The Edison, a 32-storey hybrid building—to develop an even more impressive 50-storey timber skyscraper. This project is part of a $700 million activation of the Marcus Performing Art Center garage snow pile. 🔍 Why This Matters: 1️⃣ Record-Breaking Design: Designed by MGA | Michael Green Architecture, the project aims to be the tallest mass timber building in the world and the tallest building in Wisconsin. 2️⃣ Sustainable Development: Located near The Edison—which uses 100,000 cubic feet of cross-laminated timber (CLT) panels and glulam beams over a post-tensioned concrete base—the new building will include up to 750 residential units, 90,000 square feet of office space, 40,000 square feet of retail, 300 hotel rooms, and public plazas. 3️⃣ Urban Growth: Milwaukee Mayor Cavalier Johnson supports the project to grow the city’s population to one million. The development represents a forward-thinking Milwaukee that is open to outside investment and innovative ideas. 🪵 According to Kevin Naranjo, National Program Manager for Mass Timber at the US Forest Service Wood Innovations Program, the demand for timber buildings will surge 25-fold over the next 50 years. Mass timber buildings are lighter, more sustainable, and faster to construct than conventional steel and concrete systems. 🔗 Learn more about the surge in mass timber construction and Milwaukee’s ambitious new project: https://lnkd.in/ggVF4j-g 🗣️ #questionforgroup: What are the key benefits and challenges of constructing high-rise buildings using mass timber?
