Opera Warehouse is new market rental housing on a three block, 900 ft long former industrial site in the delicately scaled historic neighborhood called Dogpatch. The developers assembled a three firm design team to break the large site into contextually appropriate segments. The team responded with a tri-partite scheme in which each segment is a fundamentally different building type. The Mithun/Solomon segment designed by Daniel Solomon is the most highly articulated — related in scale to small buildings in the neighborhood and in material to the handsome brick Espirit Warehouse across the street.
