Approach
The Pointe at Polaris encompasses over 20 acres at the corner of Gemini Parkway and Lyra Drive in the Polaris Centers of Commerce. The first phase of the project opened in early 2018 and includes a 3 story, 106,000 square foot office/retail/restaurant building; a 4 story, 569 space parking garage; and a 4 story, 216 unit apartment building. The second phase will include a second office building, parking garage, and apartment building of similar sizes as well as a hotel.
A project this size takes a long time to get off the ground, and we have been working on the design since spring of 2014 with many stakeholders including owners, developers, the construction team and consultants, leasing and management companies, and state entities. Collaboration was key to success in this mixed use development.
