DePaul Upper Falls Square


Project Highlights

At 143,000 SF, it consists of two buildings housing 150 apartment units and amenities; spanning two city blocks, it is one of the largest single developments ever undertaken by DePaul.

Brick, natural stone, and traditional siding materials comfortably place the buildings in their residential surroundings, while still speaking to the area’s urban and commercial fabric. On Hudson Avenue, solid masonry corners reestablish the street edge, but give way around the corner to a generous courtyard – the project’s literal and figurative front yard, underpinning its residential soul. Continuity of form and material lend an overall campus-like quality to the project without diminishing the individual presence of each building, echoing the way DePaul fosters individuality in its clients, while creating a sense of belonging to the community.
