EMERYVILLE LOFTS
Emeryville, CA
140 Loft Units

Challenge:
To renovate a 1930s four-story warehouse structure into a contemporary housing community.

Vision:
To utilize cutting-edge architects, engineers and local artisans to create a striking rehabilitation of the industrial building in order to appeal to diverse uses and residents.

Results:
The Emeryville Warehouse Lofts is the signature urban loft development in the rapidly-changing inner East Bay. It anchors what has become one of the Bay Area's hottest development locations, representing a compelling combination of visionary design and attention to detail. Units in the development range in price from $180,000 to over $1,000,000. The partnership structured a tax-advantaged sale for the long-time owner of the original warehouse. The 140 units were sold out within six months. The Emeryville Warehouse Lofts won a 2000 ULI Gold Nugget Award and a 2001 Builder's Choice Grand Prize.
