Two Hermann Place Residences
The Two Hermann Place Residences is an opportunity to create a luxury high-rise development with extensive amenity spaces, generous floor plans and standardized unit designs that emphasize efficiency as well as luxury. Located on an urban site adjacent to famed Hermann Park, this development was designed to market the local medical staff at Hermann Park Medical Center.
Maintaining the budget while designing during COVID was one of the significant challenges to this project. The team issued Construction Documents for pricing and subsequent Value Engineering that led to the complete re-draw of the Revit model with all upper floor levels changing, and sections being trimmed to reduce the footprint and overall height of the building. The team worked closely in collaboration with the General Contractor estimator consultant until the revised design presentations could be used to confirm building aesthetics, maintain quality, confirm program, and reduce the overall budget.
