PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Gateway South is part of the first phase of the Sun Valley redevelopment and is made up of 92 units (1 BR and 2 BR flats) and a food market. The architectural design draws from materials that historically graced the neighborhood, and the vertical change in materials helps to break up the six-story structures and create a more human-scale experience. The lit-art creates a dramatic statement.
