Situated in Boise’s West End is a 3-story multifamily building providing more housing options in an up-and-coming area of town. The building massing is set back from the corner of 18th and Idaho creating community-serving open space. An angled roof-line breaks up the length of the building as it steps back from Idaho St, providing a more traditional residential design at the eastern side of the building. Individual resident entries activate the street with at-grade patios, seating, and landscaping to tie-in with the adjacent neighborhood housing while giving a townhome feel to the building.
The project consists of a public-private partnership between Boise’s Urban Renewal Agency and the development team which combined multiple sites to create a more efficient program. The building consists of 48 total units, as well as a bicycle workroom and storage amenity. The unit mix consists of studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom units with 15% of the units provided as workforce units at 100% of the AMI.
