The architects are noted for their success in dealing with the challenging site – which has a busy highway on one side and the low-rise edge of the city on the other. “The north side of the building serves as a ‘new cliff,’ while the south features cascading gardens and open spaces that seek to integrate with the lower urban scale of this part of the district,” write Farrell and McNamara about the project.
