DEVELOPMENT

THE TALLEST MASS TIMBER BUILDING ON THE EAST COAST

PROJECT INFORMATION

About

Apex Plaza is a new 187,000 RSF cross-laminated timber mixed-use building above a concrete parking garage at 120 Garrett Street in Charlottesville. The project represents the first large-scale mass timber project in the Commonwealth of Virginia, and one of only a handful in the United States. The building includes retail, office and  living spaces adjacent to the Downtown Mall.

Sustainability

The use of structural wood harvested from fast-growth timber is one of the many sustainable features of Apex Plaza. Much like a healthy tree stores carbon dioxide, one square meter of cross-laminated timber can remove approximately one ton of the greenhouse gas from the atmosphere. Additionally, the building’s 875 solar panels produce approximately 364,000 kWh/year of electricity, the equivalent of 88 tons of recycling being saved from the landfill.
