Architecture office Woods Bagot has covered an apartment block in San Francisco s Dogpatch neighbourhood with a green wall that climbs up five floors.
Called 2177 Third Street, the residential building includes 114 condos with amenities including a private courtyard, beach access and a spa – or spaw – for dogs.
2177 Third Street is in San Francisco s Dogpatch neighbourhood
Once a hub for the shipbuilding industry, the dockside neighbourhood of Dogpatch is now home to trendy bars and cafes.
Woods Bagot designed the apartment block to take advantage of California s balmy climate, with an outdoor courtyard and individual balconies. Open pedestrian bridges link different parts of the building and allow the breeze to pass through.
