245 Kingston
Located in Cedar Rapids, IA
The City of Cedar Rapids sought a team to redevelop a parking lot in a prime location in Kingston Village, just west of the Cedar River in downtown Cedar Rapids. The City selected the team of M&W Properties and Build to Suit who had a goal of providing a contemporary building design to differentiate this development from other housing in the downtown area.
The result is 245 Kingston, a five-story, 50-unit apartment building targeting young professionals with panoramic views of the downtown skyline from a shared rooftop terrace surrounded by a green roof.
Connected to downtown by a bus loop and bike trail, the complex offers urban, car-optional living as well as secure at-grade parking. Other amenities include a rooftop grill and fire pit, in-building gym, UPS drop and Wi-Fi.
The high-end, two-story lofts offer spaces unlike any in Cedar Rapids.
“The experience working with the Shive-Hattery team has been tremendous. All are very friendly while maintaining a high level of professionalism during the design process, which can be challenging at times.”
