Parkside Uptown

30 Story office building

Foregoing the typical central core approach, the project has a side-loaded core allowing for open floor plans and light to illuminate the interiors from all three sides. Three staggered volumes provide a range in floorplates for tenants, ranging from average to exceptionally deep.

Building on the greenery of the neighboring Klyde Warren Park, extensive landscaped balconies and terraces carry nature vertically through the tower, furthered by a planted façade that scales the podium. The project offers an inside/outside juxtaposition, the glass envelope punctuated by open-air, landscaped spaces. A daylit primary staircase encourages users to utilize the feature, promoting activity among the tenants.

A gridded façade differentiates the project from other glass towers and blurs the line between hospitality and commercial, while the two-story block segments, varied in scale and alignment, emphasize the project’s staggered form.
