The Kiln offers four stories of residential living with an open-parking garage below. Sited in an area with a mix of commercial properties and single-family homes, the design team used modern industrial forms and materials and a residential scale to blend the development into the surrounding context. Tenant amenities feature professional workspaces, storage areas, and a fitness center. In addition to GoVenture Capital Group and Maugel DeStefano Architects, team members included Hannigan Engineering and TFMoran.
The art of balancing aesthetics and construction costs began in the earliest phases of design—when geometric simplicity and compositions of attractive, durable materials define marketability and control costs. Both were achieved at The Kiln when the collaborative team of architect, owner, and general contractor defined clear objectives and value-engineered the project from conception. This early collaboration resulted in substantial construction cost savings and a highly desirable residential product for the City of Worcester.
Maugel DeStefano is also working with the joint venture of the Michaels Organization and GoVenture Capital Group at 274 Franklin Street in Worcester. The Franklin Street multifamily development features 364 dwelling units and 15,000 SF of amenities. The project is set to be completed in early 2025.
