Project Description
The Fynn is an eight-story, 212-unit multifamily development at 183 N. Addison Ave., in Elmhurst, Ill., a western suburb of Chicago. Designed by BKV Group, a holistic, multidisciplinary design firm, and developed by LMC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Lennar Corporation and a leader in apartment development and management, the luxury rental community includes studio, one- and two-bedroom apartments.
BKV Group supported the development of The Fynn, utilizing its full-service model, by providing planning and pre-development services and leading all engineering, architecture, interior design and landscape architecture. The use of light gauge steel construction – popular with high-density, urban infill projects – allowed for a more vertical design of the building while minimizing costs, shortening the construction timeline and lessening environmental impacts.
The urban design carries through to the property’s interior, where a mix of warm and cool materials, textured woods and mixed metals create sleek spaces throughout the building. Community amenities at The Fynn include a resort-inspired pool deck with fire pit and gaming, community lounge with entertainment bar, coworking stations, fitness center and exercise studio, do-it-yourself space with bike lounge, dog run and spa, and sky club with views of Elmhurst and downtown Chicago.
