croghan's edge townhomes
Situated along Penn Avenue, the Croghan’s Edge Townhomes are surrounded by a mix of uses that comprise the residential/commercial corridor in Pittsburgh’s dense, urban Lawrenceville neighborhood. Here, the challenge was to accommodate four distinct for-sale residences on a small triangular site of only 3,300 square feet - an area that is bounded by two streets and an alley. Additionally, the developer was seeking to use factory-built modular components for the upper stories. The solution was to develop a scheme that not only addressed the neighborhood rowhouse scale but also provided a contemporary interpretation of the neighborhood context. The design team embraced this modularity, articulating these distinct prefab “boxes” through the use of contrasting finish materials, pushing and pulling and stepping the modular boxes to align with the site’s topography.
