Architectural Excellence : Smart, sustainable, convenient. iUnit™@Eliot Flats is a 40-unit apartment community in the heart of the popular Lower Highlands (LoHi) neighborhood in Denver, Colorado. The building features 30 studios and 10 one-bedroom units with 18,140 sq ft of modular space.
This sustainable living community located in one of Denver’s most fashionable neighborhoods, attracts young professionals and empty-nesters alike by offering high walkability to restaurants, shops, running and biking trails, public transit, and easy accessibility via bike or bus to downtown Denver, light rail and countless other community amenities. A roof-top deck offers breathtaking views of downtown’s core and the perfect spot to watch the sunset over the mountain peaks. The first-level parking provides quick and easy access to tenant vehicles that are protected from the elements.
Cost Energy Effectiveness : With skyrocketing construction costs in the Denver area, the iUNIT team turned to modular construction to offer a high-quality, modern living community at an affordable price. The cost certainty and accelerated return on investment made modular an attractive option in a highly competitive construction environment. Additionally, the built-in technology helps reduce utility costs.
