Latest renderings for Co-living space "Two Saints"
Appearing on Canal Street Beat by Staff Writers
Two Saints, the co-living project proposed for the warehouse district by developer Marcel Wisnia, has released its latest renderings in conjunction with an Historic District Landmark’s Commission filing.
Two Saints will be New Orleans’ first co-living concept, which features adult dorm rooms where each renter has their own room and bath room, but share common areas and amenities. The building will also offer weekly housekeeping included in the rent.
The development will feature 143,000 square feet of apartments, a pool, gym, steam room and sauna, laundry room, chef’s kitchen, and 12,000 square feet of ground-floor commercial space.
Two historic buildings at 867 and 857 St. Charles Ave. are to be incorporated into the design of the new construction. The project will rise from the corner of St. Joseph Street and St. Charles Avenue. Rents will range from $1,300 to $1,500, and are income restricted to between 75 percent and 110 percent of the area median income – between $33,200 and $48,700 for a single person.
The developer secured an IDB incentive for the project last year.
Wisnia is also developing the nearby $49 million Stephens Garage project. There are a lot of other developments happening in the immediate area as well, including the $50 million mixed-use building project by Woodward Interests and Boston-based Audubon Capital Partners at the corner of St. Charles and Julia Streets.
