Galleria89

All-Electric Transit-Oriented Development

Farr Associates is leading the design process for a new 46-unit affordable housing and mixed-use building, a project selected under the City of Chicago INVEST South/West initiative.

Equity, access, and health are key attributes of the project. The design includes 1, 2, and 3-bedroom units, a ground-floor community/meeting room and retail space, likely to offer much-needed neighborhood banking opportunities. An “active stair” is open and invites residents to choose a healthy, energy-efficient alternative to the elevator.

Galleria 89 is designed to meet ambitious sustainability goals, including all-electric and PHIUS certification. Such a building will provide users and the community with a healthy, resilient community place that will serve them well long into the future.
