Hangar Lofts
Denver, COThe Hangar Lofts are located at the former Lowry Air Force Base, close to two remaining large hangars - and the project takes its design theme from the hangars too. Elements include curved roofs and perimeter building pieces attached to the main mass like saddle bags. The project consists of four buildings each containing 30 residential condominiums. They that are grouped in pairs on each side of a new street created specifically for the project with all four buildings grouped around corner plazas, so that the project creates a strong sense of community within. In addition to these features, pedestrian walkways are provided that connect the projects to other parts of Lowry Development, including both of the town center and recreation areas. Parking is located underground, with the buildings above enfront their streets, reinforcing the urban design principles that the Lowry redevelopment is based on. Because the buildings are "L" shaped, in addition to helping create and reinforce the urban fabric, they also provide quiet, outdoor spaces for the residents on the sides of the buildings away from the street.
