The Lake
This new 6 story and 78 unit all residential building filled a void in the urban fabric of Oak Park by replacing an underutilized bank branch parking lot with a boutique residential luxury rental building. Consisting of one and two bedroom units, the building offers an option for everyone from young professionals to empty nesters. The contemporary design draws inspiration from the nearby Historic Unity temple with its clean horizontal lines and overhangs. Originally targeting LEED Silver the team was able to achieve LEED Gold through simple but thoughtful sustainability concepts implemented into the building design.
