Safari Drive
Project Size:
165 condominium units and amenities totaling approximately 325,000 gross square feet of building area (Phase 1 and 2 combined) on a 4.81 acre site (34 units/acre).
Completed Phase 1 only:
5 buildings; 95 condominium units (ranging from 800 sf to 2300 sf each), 17,000 sf of live work lofts and 10,000 sf of retail space.
Safari Drive reinvents the suburban form. The barrier of distance between the exclusively residential and commercial zones is compressed to a livable dimension. Potentially daunting
in the context of low-lying suburbia, the massing of five story buildings is modulated to a human scale, graciously introducing a viable level of density in the midst of consumptive sprawl.
Within its own bounds, the project is a self-sustaining, vibrant mixed-use urban neighborhood.
Small commercial functions – live/work lofts and ground floor retail spaces – are mixed among the residential units, contributing a shared energy to the public spaces.
