Originally constructed in 1925, 1500 Park Avenue was once a fruit-drying warehouse and is now a prime example of adaptive reuse for many of Emeryville?s once-industrial properties. Designed by the award-winning San Francisco/Oakland firm of David Baker Architects and built in 1999, Emeryville Warehouse was a trailblazer in the concept of live/work properties in the East Bay. The Emeryville Warehouse Lofts? stunning front door was made by San Francisco?s Sand Studios, the recipient of many architectural design and fabrication awards. The double-height public lobby has polished concrete floors and an architecturally striking steel and wood staircase that leads to the lofts on the second floor. The building is made of steel-reinforced poured-in-place concrete and features a five-story parking garage, an open-air roof deck, and a pedestrian colonnade that fronts Park Avenue. During construction/renovation of the property, the building?s exterior upgrades included new aluminum windows, a new roof, and renovated exterior walls, while the interior was seismically upgraded to include concrete shear walls; new plumbing and electrical systems; a fire sprinkler system; smoke and fire alarm systems; and a card-reading entry system. Lastly, a lushly landscaped entry courtyard was installed and features giant timber bamboo, towering palm trees, a five-story waterfall, and a reflecting pool, all of which screen the building?s entrance from the street while providing a calm oasis. A special feature of this property is the expansive rooftop deck that is available to owners and their guests. The deck is furnished with tables, benches, and chairs in numerous groupings, and has stunning views of Oakland, Berkeley, and beyond.
