Address:29 W 800 S and 850 S Richards Street -
Developer: The Boyer Company
Basic Description:
Construction of two apartment buildings.
Elliott North (29 W 800 S): 8 floors, 278 units (74 studio, 164 1-bed, 40 2-bed), 2,000 sf retail, 320 parking stalls.
Elliott South (850 S Richards Street): 7 floors, 60 units (27 1-bed, 33 2-bed), 90 parking stalls.
Project Description (from Developer):
We are pleased to present the Elliot, a 338-home multifamily community spanning five separate parcels in two buildings along 800 S and Richards Street. Currently, the site houses Downtown Self Storage, a self-storage and RV parking business, as well as a single-story office building. The Boyer Company has partnered with long-time owners of the property, the Wolfe family, who founded and sold Salt Lake City-based Wolfe Sporting Goods.
The community will focus on providing spaces that enable our resident’s innate creativity while promoting the incredibly talented creative community of Salt Lake City. Along the podium wall on Richards Street, the project will provide outdoor stamped concrete frames for local artists to mount their canvases, effectively creating a pedestrian “art walk.” These frames can be used seasonally and rotated throughout the year. Within the building itself, we focus on creator spaces for musicians, podcast creators, and artists in addition to health and wellness amenities expected by our residents. The smaller 60-home building will provide larger floorplans geared towards young families looking for a quiet, safe, and secluded refuge. Each building provides distinct courtyards with ample green space and vegetation, a quiet space or an active fitness deck depending on each resident’s preference.
The building façade provides breaks both vertically and horizontally using architectural projections, fur-outs, and enhanced materials that change in color and texture. The articulation is a tribute to the cape chisel technique for rough-cutting slabs of granite out of quarry walls, while the layers below are smoothed and processed. There are an array of architectural inserts and reveals expressed as recessed balconies and vertical circulation visible from the outside. Together, these design choices seek to enrich the urban environment and emphasize the dynamic pedestrian realm at the project’s base.
The community is an 8-minute walk from the 900 S 200 W Trax Station, a 2-minute walk to the 900 S bus stop and adjacent to the newly reconstructed pedestrian-friendly 900 South corridor. The north building is an 8-story mixed-use community with 2,000 square feet of retail along 800 South, 278 homes, a subterranean parking garage, and almost 14,000 square feet of outdoor and indoor amenities. The south building is a 7-story community with 60 homes catering to residents seeking larger spaces along with 2,700 square feet of shared amenities. Our goal is to create a community that will allow residents to thrive where they live and continue to grow, beautify, and invest in their neighborhood well into the future. The creative force in Salt Lake City is at the vanguard of bringing to life authentic, vibrant places. Through thoughtful placemaking and tailored spaces we aim to foster this engine of creative growth and ultimately create a true sense of place that will last for decades.
