TL Residences

THOUGHTFULLY-DESIGNED COMMON AREAS

Common Spaces at TL Residences are meant to embody the future of urban living - allowing for in-demand experiences programmed, shared cooking that can be delivered in partnership with Project Access. The amount of amenity space was built around the idea of offering a large, open space when stepping out from a small space. This is manifested by fitness areas, lounges, and laundry facilities that are centrally located in the building with immediate elevator access. These are natural gathering spaces with high traffic that are positioned in a way that presence is always high.

    • The Communal Alley Garden, or Bamboo Garden, will contribute to cleaner air and create a beautiful outdoor space with plant life such as aloe, agave, climbing fig, jasmine, fern, and bamboo. This space will filter light and give life and animation to the community to enrich the lives of residents. Each of these plants was carefully selected, in part because of how they process pollutants.

Awe-insipiring detail

Both Turk 361 & Leavenworth 145 have some of the most unique facades in the City. Designed from perforated copper-coated aluminum panels by local high school students who drew their inspiration from the Tenderloin neighborhood—showcasing our commitment to community engagement and education through design.

ARTIST: SOFIA


Sofia walked the Tenderloin and noticed the Black Hawk nightclub, where Miles Davis regularly performed. After playing the Miles Davis piece “So What,” Sofia interpreted the music to create a pattern language.


The music is 4 beats on 5 bars, so the panels are 4 parts across and each ring is designed to represent the frequency response of the note. Sofia used this design as part of her senior portfolio at SOTA, and went on to study at Pratt University in NYC.

145 LEAVENWORTH STREET

ARTIST: EVA


Eva saw the Tenderloin as a place where some people reach out and up for help, and some people reach down a helping hand. To incorporate this idea, Leavenworth's façade shows hands reaching toward one another, grasping. This evokes a feeling of community and service.
