- Brookside Artist Lofts
- Jamaica Plain, MA
- Creative demolition allowed this former rubber factory to take on a new use as affordable artist live / work housing. ICON specifically designed units to fit each resident's needs, making way for pottery kilns, a circus trapeze, a dance studio, and even taxidermy. The complex now houses a range of unit types, including townhouses, open lofts reaching up into historic light monitors, and flats with private courtyards wrapped around the historic smokestack.
