Update - Downtown Adj - The Mixed-Use SPARK Apts. - North Temple TRAX Corridor - By Brinshore Development
Of Note: Whitney Weller, Senior VP at Brinshore, told us that they “in conversations with Neighborhood House for the child care space,” adding that they are “also speaking with other non profit organizations as well as food focused enterprises that would complement the residential community.”
SPARK! Provides high density mixed-income, workforce housing with 50 percent of its units designated affordable. The color, materiality, and texture of SPARK! takes its cues from the industrial and durable materials of the adjacent power plant including brick, steel, and metal panel nodding to the past in a clean modern format. The weathered timeless look of Coreten steel and dark charcoal brick at the base are offset by light metal paneling with bright colored accents on the higher massings, which is softened by lushly landscaped terraces and roof gardens that are home to bee hives, providing fresh vegetables and honey to the residents. The community fronts Temple Street and the transit station with a small urban plaza and street-facing retail, which opens to a courtyard shared by tenants and customers alike. Open space along the ground floor on the north side of the community is reserved for bike trails and edible gardens that include fruit-bearing trees, rosemary, sage and lavender. Providing residents and the public a place to stop and soak in the aromas of the garden and deepening the connection between the established and the new. The units on the upper floors are arranged in a large “U” shape surrounding a private residential courtyard and numerous roof terraces. SPARK!’s building composition reflects the varied uses of daycare, retail and housing. Each function is expressed in a clear building massing and highlighted by a change in materials. This new community, immediately adjacent to TRAX transit station, with ground floor childcare and grab and go retail, caters to the young family and commuting professionals.

State of Property before demolition. Example of what was the past development setup of much of the north temple corridor
before the advent of light rail from downtown to the airport. This transit corridor is now redeveloping at a breakneck pace.

SALT LAKE CITY — Salt Lake City leaders and developers broke ground Tuesday on a new multi-use, multi-income project backed by $15.5 million city funds. The development hopes to include multi-income housing, retail, childcare opportunities, and other amenities...Salt Lake City District 1 Councilwoman, Victoria Petro, says the housing should be affordable for many based off the area's median income.
"If we look at the [median incomes] that will be served here, it goes from 20% up to 80%," Petro said. "Those are certainly the families that are being displaced. It's not just preventing their displacement, but it's allowing them to stay in their community in a dignified beautiful new rejuvenative way."
...Salt Lake City Mayor Erin Mendenhall says before developments like Sparks begin, the city reaches out to the community to see what residents need and want in their neighborhoods.
"What I would say in terms of the broader development of this area is we asked the neighborhood what they need and what they want, and then when the city invests its investing in those very things the neighborhood community asked for," said Mendenhall.
