The dynamism of daily life in traditional cities – where living, working, shopping, and civic and cultural discourse once naturally co-mingled – was somehow lost in modern times. Single-use buildings tended to silence street life except along retail avenues. Today, the resurgence of mixed-use typologies is refreshing and welcome, as well as economically brilliant and sustainable. Most of our mixed-use projects are anchored by housing or offices or a combination. The addition of magnets like retail, dining, entertainment, and cultural destinations enlivens the public realm and attracts people day and night.
