Downwood is located in an upscale suburban area just north of Atlanta, Georgia, and consists of two, five-story apartment buildings with a five-level parking garage, and a total of 280 units. The two apartment buildings are connected by an elevated, enclosed pedestrian bridge, and amenities include a fitness space, interior and rooftop gathering spaces, swimming pool, bocce court, and large landscaped plaza. Marx|Okubo was engaged early on as an owner’s representative to review program and design requirements, budget and schedule, and identify areas requiring further evaluation. Once construction documents were finalized, our services transitioned to construction administration with regular site visits and monthly reporting with a review of project costs, schedule and construction quality. Our services continued through project closeout, where we assisted with the collection and review of closeout documents, and concluded with a warranty walk ten months after substantial completion to confirm the site, building, and systems were performing as designed.
