Ryan OnDesign - Multifamily (2022)

OnDesign

If one word could encapsulate the last few years for the Ryan A+E Multifamily team, it would be growth. With multiple projects in design and construction, our team has delivered millions of square feet of multifamily communities ranging from urban high-rises to suburban wood-frame projects.

With dedicated A+E members throughout the nation, we are growing into a well-balanced team that is positioned to continue supporting Ryan's multifamily sector in the years to come. I'm excited for our next phase of multifamily growth – focused on buidling new partnerships in all Ryan regions and expanding our talent and team throughout the country.

A+E Multifamily On the Boards

ELMHURST MULTIFAMILY, CHICAGO, IL

MUELLER MULTIFAMILY DEVELOPMENT, AUSTIN, TX

A+E's Multifamily sector has a strong presence and established teams within Ryan's North and Great Lakes regions. As our team continues to grow to support our construction and development partners, we are well positioned to support multifamily growth in the South Central and other regions.

We have gone from three projects per year to currently having:

• Eight active projects across three regions

• Twelve active pursuits in six regions

• More than thirty site studies underway in twelve regions

Ryan A+E’s national growth to over 175 members includes the expanding Great Lakes Region to 15 architects and its first multifamily project since The Aurelien was completed in Chicago.

With a growing A+E team in Texas supported by team members in Minneapolis and Chicago, Ryan A+E took on our first major multifamily design project in Austin.

Located in downtown Elmhurst, a western suburb of Chicago, the project is a seven story, 200-unit, Class-A apartment building located just blocks away from the Metra train line which transports local commuters to and from downtown Chicago. In addition to providing a variety of unit types from studios to three bedrooms, the unique design incorporates two distinct outdoor amenity spaces at the lower level, as well as one at the top floor with a terrace offering views towards downtown Chicago. Clad in red masonry with buff cast stone accents, three warm tones of fiber cement panels, and large fenestration, the design provides a compelling balance between contemporary and traditional design.

Once complete, the project will bring economic viability to an underutilized city block and will draw residents downtown supporting local businesses.

Located on a prominent site next to the old Mueller Airport Control Tower, the project will become the focal point of a new public plaza. Teaming with Ryan's Development and Construction teams, along with many local consultants, A+E was able to successfully navigate a complex neighborhood and city approval process for a five-story wrap with 350 residential units. To add additional local flare, our team partnered with award-winning Lake Flato Architects on the exterior design. Through this collaboration, we incorproated three courtyards to give residents a variety of outdoor amenities and included a top floor club room and outdoor terrace to take advantage of the dramatic views of the Austin skyline. With this project currently under construction, we hope to see residents moving in late 2023.

ENERGY MODELING AS A TOOL FOR DATA DRIVEN DESIGN

MODULAR EXPLORATION

EXPANDING BEYOND URBAN INFILL

A+E, construction and preconstruction have all learned a lot from the energy modeling process at Highland Bridge. Projects have a better understanding of which surprising tactics have the best bang-for-buck in reducing a project’s overall energy consumption. Projects can get free energy modeling through utility programs such as “Enhanced Design Assistance” also known as “EDA” which not only provides the free energy modeling, but also results in rebates, which like solar, is also accretive to the project’s proforma, and to the A+E and construction team’s fees. For more information on the team's sustainabiltiy efforts, reach out to Senior Project Design Manager Lindsey Kieffaber.

Ryan's A+E multifamily team is open to exploring modular design and construction as a delivery method. Using Highland Bridge Block 2 as a case study, the team identified both challenges and opportunities for as it relates to implementing this delivery. While the project didn’t ultimately proceed as a modular effort, the team developed units and modules that will provide an excellent starting point for future modular projects. The team worked closely with the modular fabricators in order to deliver accurate pricing packages and identify opportunities to find greater efficiencies without compromising design.

For more information on modular design explorations, reach out to Senior Project Architect Joel Brygger.

Setting our sights on new areas of expansion, the north region team set a strategic focus on diversifying our portfolio beyond urban infill projects. With a goal to start exploring suburban multifamily, this competitive segment is driven by additional pressure on cost, efficiency and quality. In our most recent north region exploration, our first project is a five-story wood-frame design that features ten-unit types across 200+ units and is oriented to take advantage of its large nature-filled site. The integrated design-build team is currently navigating the design, pricing and approval process and aims to start construction in October. For more information on expansion into the suburban multifamily market, reach out to Project Designer Joe Conway.
