Southside Works continues to grow with the addition of new retail--the hip
H&M, for the latest international styles in men, women's and children's clothes opens in June--and its first residential project: two new condominium buildings by the
Soffer Organization on South Water St.
Plans for Phase One of the condos call for a 180,000 square foot, 75-unit building designed by Cambridge Seven Architects and the Pittsburgh firm of Perfido Weiskopf Architects. Completion is expected in late 2008. Phase Two, also by Soffer is not yet designed. Price range has not been established for the condos.
Although the Southside Works has 84 rental lofts and flats, and there are condos nearby, this is the first within the development. Demand is high as the area continues to grow with a mix of offices, retail and residential.
"It's a wonderful place to live within the Southside Works and the vibrant South Side community," said Christine Fulton of the Soffer Organization.
H&M will join retailers such as BCBG, MAZ Azra, American Eagel Outfitters, Cole Haan, Kenneth Cole New York, Roberta Weissberg Leather, Steve Madden Urban Outfitters and Forever 21, among others.
