Framed with concrete, this 24-story dormitory also has three levels of retail space. Its columns bear on drilled caissons—of up to 1500 kips capacity—which support a concrete slab on grade. Severud Associates incorporated existing basement walls into the foundation design which eliminated the need for temporary excavation support and reduced construction costs.
