The Westgate 1515 project breaks down the scale of a typical housing project and incoporates residential, community green spaces, and an enhanced public plaza. The 335,000 SF project encompasses an entire city block and now serves as a model for denser, mixed-use developments that combine essential housing with a larger civic purpose. Westgate 1515’s varied roof heights and common outdoor spaces at all levels, break up the 300-foot long façade.
