  • Description: [...]the architect of Las Americas, SO - IL, had designed a building with similar sensibilities to the Mexican experiment for San Francisco, but escalating costs derailed that project. Each unit also has what the architects call a "porch," or small seating area, at its entrance, and at least two bona fide outdoor spaces-a balcony scaled to fit a dining table and accessed from two sides, including the kitchen; and a smaller one, off a bedroom. A large common garden sits atop a ground-floor commercial space on the building's south side. Because the architects chose not to build out that space over the storefront, the building takes on a T shape, composed of three, almost independent, structures with multiple exposures, on a corner site.
