Notable Projects:

Pearl Koehler Mixed-Use Garage/Retail/Residential Building

74,000 SF | San Antonio, TX

This mixed-use building is in the heart of the Pearl Brewery Development adjacent to the San Antonio River. The building contains the Culinary Institute of America, 8 loft apartments and lease space for both retail, office and restaurant uses. In addition, the building contains a 500-car parking garage which is completely hidden from view.

The Koehler Garage design complies with two critical goals. The first was to provide a centralized loading/receiving, trash/recycling, paring and cooling plant for the next phase of buildings to come online. The second goal was to create a building that is uniquely “Pearl” while not competing with the historical buildings within the complex. All facades are viewed as front facades and are articulated to greet patrons and lead them through the complex.

Located at the heart of the historic Pearl campus, the Bottling Department sits along the San Antonio River and is the city’s first food hall that houses local chefs. The mixed-use campus fosters rich community and organic interaction while the Bottling Department invites visitors to dine and drink al fresco. At street level, the Bottling Department features a diverse range of stall-sized counter-service local restaurants and a common dining room while a new basement houses a speakeasy music venue, Jazz TX, with salvaged equipment from Pearl’s past.

This mixed-use building houses retail and office space. The unique site challenge was to create flexible layouts positioning the front door to any direction. Three facades provide canopies and colonnades creating covered retail shopping and outdoor dining. The fourth façade creates an intimate court used for outdoor events and al fresco dining. Upper floors offer views of historic buildings, courtyards, and urban densities. Standard Pearl elements included increased density, regional materials, and large overhangs.
