Being located on a road of this nature faces particularities such as noise and visual pollution, which encouraged us to generate very specific architectural and structural solutions. The complexity and challenge of this project lie in the fact that it is located on the side of the Miguel Alemán viaduct on the corner of the small Yukon Street. 

The building is developed as a slender volume of apparent concrete which integrates its columns as a façade, envelope, and dividing walls, making each square meter more efficient. The façade responds to a viaduct with the proposal of a double skin that is an irregular grid that changes randomly, creating a visual barrier and relegating the gates to the background. The Yukon façade has a more traditional format and opens towards the street, allowing it to integrate differently into its context and the neighborhood.

The homes offer wonderful spatial quality and privacy since they only have one property per level, achieving excellent natural lighting and ventilation and immediate privileged access from the stairs and elevator.

The ground floor was resolved to the millimeter to accommodate 14 parking spaces using car elevators, in addition to a lobby and very decent pedestrian access.

As part of the architectural program, the building has a lobby, parking, and circulation on the ground floor, seven residential floors with one typical apartment per floor, and a common roof garden open to the city that offers an area of ​​experience and an extension of your home.
