Rosemann Expands Supportive Services with Women-Centric Design Team

Rosemann has been a long-time partner, funder, and volunteer for Amethyst Place in Kansas City, MO, a non-profit organization that provides supportive housing, family empowerment, and therapeutic services for single mothers and children recovering from generational poverty, trauma, and/or substance abuse. Currently, Amethyst Place helps families stabilize and unify with 37 private, fully furnished apartments at 27th and Troost. However, the 12-month waitlist for the existing property means more than 40 families continue to be separated and houseless while awaiting safe housing and support. Rosemann recently partnered with Amethyst Place to implement their expansion goals by transforming 1.28 acres of blighted, vacant land into a new 37-unit development.

Mirroring the mission of the non-profit, Rosemann helped Amethyst Place assemble a team of professional women, including Emily Clements, NCIDQ, Maggie Brennan and other women-led designers, professional engineers and general contractors, to design and build the expanded housing option which includes a community area and green space for outdoor play. Parking will surpass minimum urban design standards to meet parking needs. 

Rosemann’s Project Architect Emily Clements, NCIDQ

In the words of Rosemann Project Architect Emily Clements, “Being a team of women designing housing for women naturally makes sense. We can take our own experiences and apply them to create a functional and safe environment. But it is especially important for these women who may not have felt that security before now to know their needs are being considered in creating a stable home. It is extremely fulfilling to be able to use my professional skills to uplift other women.”

To fund the $15,400.000.00 expansion project, Amethyst Place has launched a capital campaign that leverages private and public investments, including government contracts, tax credits, foundation grants, and individual donors.

Specifications for the new Level II supportive housing include:

Community programming space, fitness room, and staff offices on the first floor
Gated outdoor space with courtyard, playground, and bike path

  • (17) 2 bedroom/2 bath – approximately 1,125 SF
  • (8) 3 bedroom/2 bath – approximately 1,575 SF
  • Laundry on each floor
  • Elevator with accessible units
  • Parking lot with 32 spaces and security gated entry

Specifications for the new Level III supportive housing include:

  • Two-story townhomes with private front entrances
  • (6) 2 bedroom/2 ½ baths – approximately 1,564 SF
  • (6) 3 bedroom/2 ½ baths – approximately 1,912 SF
  • Rear-door access to parking lot, courtyard, and other outdoor amenities near the apartment building

The businesses and women participating in the project are:

  • Rosemann & Associates, P.C. (Emily Clements, NCIDQ, project architect and Maggie Brennan, project architect)
  • Rau Construction Company (Alison Meyer Reynolds, project manager)
  • Antella Consulting Engineers, Inc. (MBE/WBE, Monica S. Santos, P.E., LEED, founder and president)
  • KH Engineering Group (WBE, Kathy Hagen, PE, founder and principal)
  • Landworks Studio (WBE, Carisa McMullen, principal)
  • Olsson (Brad Sonner, vice president)
  • Sunflower Development Group, LLC (Jason Swords, principal)
Rosemann’s Project Architect Maggie Brennan

Maggie Brennan, Rosemann Design Architect for the project commented, “Single mothers and their children deserve support, love, and community on top of basic human rights like housing. Affordable and supportive housing service are so important, not only for the individuals living there, but for our whole community. Amethyst Place is an incredible organization, and I am proud that our work will allow more women and families in our community to access their services.”

Construction is set to begin in Spring 2023 and completion is slated for the end of 2024. To learn more about Amethyst Place and their mission, expansion goals, or about becoming a resident visit them here.

275-Unit Luxury Apartment Community Coming to North Kansas City Market

Rendering of 275-unit market-rate apartment complex in the historic town of North Kansas City

Team Rosemann is delighted to be working with developer, Milhaus, on One North Apartments, a 275-unit community created to support economic development and job creation in the historic town of North Kansas City. Pushing the envelope on modern amenities to complement the surrounding redevelopment and crafted especially for the expanding professional population, this project infuses continued opportunity into the Kansas City area. One North is set to deliver one 4-story garden style and five 3-story residential apartment buildings, along with a modern clubhouse and a maintenance building. Uniquely designed floorplans range from studio to three- bedroom units sprawled across 9.346 acres.

One North displays the best in amenities including a top-end clubhouse facility, a dog park with wash station, BBQ grills and fire pit areas, fitness room, swimming pool and sundeck, and bike storage found in each unit and in spaces outside each residential building as well as at the clubhouse. The property also offers ample parking, along with detached garage stalls and carports. One North’s prime location gives residents quick access to a selection of dining and entertainment options including movie theaters, local breweries and eateries, and athletic facilities all within biking distance.

The development benefits from qualified Opportunity Zones, which were established by the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 to spur economic development and job creation. The program incentivizes investment in underserved communities via significant investor tax benefits with respect to current and future capital gains.

“We are thrilled to join our valued partner, Milhaus, on the design of this significant new urban retreat, and we are grateful for the collaborative effort by the project team to expand the supply of market rate housing in the North Kansas City community. Rosemann is dedicated to the development of K.C.’s urban core as we continue to design exciting new projects that respect the history of this wonderful city,” said Rosemann’s Kansas City Studio Director Gabe Vogl.

Phase I completion of the Clubhouse and two apartment buildings is slated for May/June 2023 and Phase II remaining buildings are expected to be complete in January 2024.



Former Metro North Mall Redevelopment Now Leasing

Kansas City, MO: Woodstone at Metro North Crossing unveils as the first step of a multi-phase redevelopment of the former Metro North Mall at N. Wyandotte Street in Northern Kansas City. Woodstone delivers 249 luxury one- and two-bedroom units and 36 two-story townhomes resting atop 30,000 SF of steel-framed ground-level premier walkable shops and office space, all anchored by entertainment complexes. The apartments range in size from 715 to 1,420 SF.

From the onset of the redevelopment, the project team envisioned a “Main Street Village” concept with walkable shops, restaurants, and outdoor gathering areas. The ground level retail and office aspect of the townhome building was the initial step in the realization of this vision.

Several alternative solutions were made by Rosemann to help defray the rising cost escalations such as changing from a flat roof to a pitched shingle roof with mechanical well at the apartment buildings. Roseman also revised the structure of the retail space from concrete to steel frame and switched from full depth brick masonry to a thin brick veneer and stone veneer. The stair towers were modified from CMU block to wood framed at the apartment buildings and lowered the overall height of the stair towers at the retail/townhome building, which no longer access the roof. In addition, metal siding was changed to a fiber cement. The amount of color changes were simplified on the townhome building and the articulation on the apartments and retail/townhome were also simplified.

A challenge faced by Rosemann during this design was the fire rating of the retail space after changing from a concrete structure to a primary steel framed structure with wood floor trusses. In this case, the steel was sprayed and required a sealed engineer’s letter. The steel columns were sprayed in accordance to a typical UL assembly and the wood trusses were protected by a rated gypsum ceiling.

Woodstone at Metro North Crossing is the perfect destination for active individuals seeking recreational and social opportunities and a low-maintenance lifestyle. Residents have access to many businesses, restaurants, retail, entertainment and movie theater all within walking distance. While under construction, T-shots, a driving range restaurant and bar opened across the street just north of the apartments and proves to be a real draw to the area.

Also an attraction are the impressive residential amenities that Woodstone delivers with large resort-style outdoor swimming pool with multiple outdoor lanais and grilling areas at the pool deck, a large clubhouse for private parties with coffee bar lounge and kitchenette, game room with pool table, fitness center, pickleball and volleyball courts, walking trail, as well as a dedicated off-leash area for pets, a private exercise facility, electronic parcel delivery locker, enclosed garages, dedicated garages for bicycle parking, and carports.

“We could not be more pleased to work along the side of developer, Metro North Crossing Apartments, LLC and contribute to the repurposing of this significant project in the Northland area. Our goal has been to maintain the context of the neighboring community while presenting an upbeat vibe with modern architecture and designer-styled interiors filled with natural light and high-end finishes,” said Edward English, Rosemann’s senior project manager.

This project meets the Bronze Standards of the National Green Building Standards. Financing for this exciting new venture is made possible by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). The development is being delivered by a collective project team including owner, Metro North Crossing Apartments, LLC; general contractor, MW Builders, Inc.; MEP, Latimer, Sommers & Associates, P.A.; civil engineer, Olsson; landscape artist, Land3 Studio; green building consultant, ASERusa and interior designer, Piper Wind Architects.

Near North Side Neighborhood Reaches Revitalization Milestone

St. Louis, MO: Rosemann & Associates, P.C. is pleased to kick-off a new beginning for mixed-income housing in the City of St. Louis with the grand opening of the first phase of Preservation Square, a multimillion-dollar reconstruction of the 1980’s 675-unit mixed-income community in the Near North Side neighborhood of Carr Square, just north of Downtown. The renovated structures have undergone significant interior demolition to allow upgrades and selective exterior demolition to give a new shape – tying these renovated structures into the overall planned development.

On September 29th our Rosemann team joined city representatives including the Mayor of the City of St. Louis Tishaura Jones and Alderman James Page of the 5th Ward, Housing Authority representatives, as well residents, project partners, and members of the general public to celebrate Preservation Square. Opening remarks were given by Vincent Bennett, CEO and President of McCormack Baron Salazar, a leading developer of economically integrated urban neighborhoods. 

Phase I of the Preservation Square development delivers the renovation and new construction of 131 total units in 21 buildings spaced over 5.8 acres, designed to Enterprise Green Community certification standards. Fifty-seven of the units are dedicated as market rate, enabling residents to continue to reside on the property even if they lose eligibility for housing assistance as their economic conditions improve. Supportive services aim to increase the economic stability of residents.

Rosemann made every effort to ensure that the design of this built environment met the individual needs of the families it supports with sustainable, diversified architecture – reflected through garden-style, townhome, and walk-up apartment units with one, two, and three-bedroom choices. Woven into the fabric of the site are green spaces, playgrounds, and other amenities to support the vision of a more connected, healthy, and safer neighborhood.

Phase I amenities further include private porches and in-unit laundry, 24-hour maintenance, surveillance and secure parking. The environmentally conscious design also includes Energy-Star certified appliances for all tenants, as well as walk in closets and high-speed Internet access.

Preservation Square is the product of a nearly $30 million HUD Choice Neighborhoods Implementation Grant, along with city and state monies, in partnership with McCormack Baron Salazar and Urban Strategies, Inc., a not-for-profit specializing in results informed human services development, planning, and strategy implementation as part of neighborhood revitalization to lay the groundwork for the revitalization of Preservation Square and the surrounding Near North Side neighborhoods.

“This milestone is the first of many to come at Preservation Square. The transformation is an example of the power of how a well-planned, well-managed, and well-designed housing community can be a catalyst for positive change,” stated St. Louis Vice President and Studio Director Jarret Cooper, AIA, LEED AP, Rosemann & Associates, P.C.

The second phase has already begun and is set to deliver the new construction of 22 multi-family buildings with 222 housing units, along with the renovation of the existing management building into a community center and the construction of the new management office. The third phase will renovate another 140 mixed-income units at a nearby McCormack Baron Salazar historic property, The Brewery Apartments on North 20th Street. While the fourth and fifth phases will follow on-site.

“We are extremely proud to play a role in this exciting initiative and rejuvenation of Preservation Square’s beautiful heritage and community. At the completion of the full vision of Preservation Square, the neighborhood’s identity will draw the unique building designs together, while also acknowledging the contextual fabric of St. Louis City,” said Rosemann Project Manager Brittany Kampschroeder.

The partnerships that made this creative revitalization project possible include developer McCormack Baron Salazar; property manager McCormack Baron Management, Inc.; mechanical, electrical, plumbing engineer Custom Engineering, Inc.; civil engineer Grimes Consulting, Inc.; landscape engineer Landscape Technologies; structural engineer KH Engineering Group; envelope consultant G&W Engineering Corporation; accessibility consultant Zeffert & Associates, Inc.; urban design firm Urban Design Associates; owner’s representative consultant Efficio Group, LLC; owner’s color consultant Colour Studio, Inc.; and owner’s construction firm Altman Charter Company.
