The 2-story brick building at 452 12th Avenue is an unreinforced masonry structure built in 1923. This project will extend the life of the mixed-use building by seismically reinforcing the structure and implementing other upgrades. The project will also add additional units to the site by creating a third-floor penthouse on top of the existing building and expanding onto the east portion of the property, which is currently occupied by a surface parking lot. The goal of the design and development team is to create an environmentally-friendly mixed-use building that elegantly mixes old and new, enhancing the corner of 12th and Remington for the public and improving the habitability of the existing building for future generations of residential and commercial tenants.
