UR-061 The Woodrow Townhouses

The Woodrow Townhouses

Located within the heart of the Tampa Heights neighborhood, this project consists of a contemporary three-story structure, including a total of six single-family attached townhouses. The design approach aimed at identifying some of the negative elements that typically characterize these types of developments, such as the perception of a track-housing pattern inherent to the repetitive nature of the units, the front-loaded parking garages devoiding the homes from engaging the public way in any meaningful way and the lack of outdoor habitable landscape areas. Addressing these issues created the framework for designing a Florida vernacular building that includes operable aluminum privacy louvers and local materials such as coral stone, both inside and outside, for a building that is truly responsive to its place.
