PUBLIC47 Architects

PUBLIC47 is pleased to announce that construction is underway on Roosevelt Manor. Utilizing the structural efficiency of Cross-Laminated Timber (CLT), the design incorporates a slim floor assembly that allows for an additional level—resulting in an 8-story mixed-use building within the 75-foot height limit. Inside, exposed CLT ceilings bring warmth and a distinctive character to both the apartments and shared amenity spaces. The building is organized around two intersecting L-shaped courtyards—a dramatic vertical volume with horizontal openings that link outdoor spaces to the site and its context—creating a dynamic section that maximizes light, air, and connectivity. At street level, a two-story commercial space anchors the corner, while CLT awnings provide weather protection for pedestrians.
