Aventine - San Francisco Bay Area, California - Build-to-Rent (Multifamily)

This project was acquired partially constructed after being stalled at 70% completion for eight years. Given the project’s state at acquisition, extensive re-framing was required so oversight skills were necessary. Justine directed a complete design overhaul of the existing construction to add market-leading amenities and increase the number of units from 98 to 147. As a result of Justine’s design skills and attention to detail, this project saw a significant uplift in project value and returns, leaving a legacy for the neighbourhood.
