The six-story contemporary project connects residents with a lively street scene via balconies and the floor-to-ceiling windows of units and community amenity spaces.\u00a0 The ground floor is activated by three retail spaces and a front yard garden. The street corner is marked by a drum form which expresses itself at the roof by a distinctive round parapet.\u00a0 A covered driveway provides off-the-street access to the building entry, and continues to ground level and underground parking.\u00a0 Common amenities are generous, with a stylish lobby, large two-story multi-purpose room and a gym.\u00a0 On each residential floor, a lounge with kitchen that residents can reserve is provided.<\/p>\n

A break in the \u201cstreet wall\u201d at the south side of the courtyard opens the \u2018zen\u2019 garden\u00a0 to views and\u00a0 accommodates a partly-covered swimming pool, where careful screening provides tranquility enhanced by pools, fountains and lush\u00a0 landscaping.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
