Lofts at 106

106 N. High St.
Columbus, Ohio
Number of Units in Development: 46
Description: Situated on High Street between Long and Gay Streets, the Lofts have transformed what used to be the staid Bureau of Motor Vehicles building. With over 95,000 square feet, and its south side abutting a windowless building, the challenge of converting the office space into residential units required a lot more than merely emphasizing its impressive 12-foot-tall ceilings. And with 31 of the 46 units facing Pearl Alley, there was an immediate and practical need to somehow bring light into the units while adhering to code regulations and offering an alternative to waking up and looking at an empty parking lot. The Lofts at 106 was designed by Global Development Group, a Mexico City-based firm whose previous projects have been located in some of the world’s most densely populated and geographically constrained cities. So the firm had a pretty good idea of what to do with the Columbus building—replace the existing roof with glass and create a 100-foot atrium allowing the sun to illuminate the building from within. And if, for some reason, the redistributed natural light isn’t enough, there’s always the computer-controlled artificial sunlight shining from a tempered glass wall in each of the units
