MultifamilyFulton Street Flats
Grand Rapids, MI · 198,000 sq ft
Sector
On a corner lot with the building line at the pavement, logistics stops being a plan and becomes the job.
Fulton Street Flats had no laydown area, no crane pad that was not also the building footprint, and a bus route on the long elevation. Everything arrived the morning it was installed, through a single permitted loading bay booked in two-hour slots, with a full-time gate coordinator whose only job was keeping that bay moving.
The curtain wall came five weeks late. First residents still moved in on schedule, because the interior fit-out had been sequenced to run independently of the envelope on the lower floors. That only works if you plan for it before you need it.
We held to the permitted fourteen days of lane closure on Fulton and not one more. A residential project that antagonises the street it is on inherits every objection at the next one.
