On the ground
As you’ll read in this month’s cover story, the firm known as SILVERMAN is marking its latest milestone in Hamilton Park with a new mixed-use project just off the five-acre green space. Known as Swift & Co., the nine-story building houses 59 apartments and 80,000 square feet of commercial space that’s now fully leased to a mix of office and retail users, plus an upscale, 20,000-square-foot coworking lounge that’s home to dozens of other entrepreneurs and much-needed event space for the community. It’s the Silverman brothers’ latest addition to a neighborhood where they’ve built some 500 residential units and 150,000 square feet of commercial space over 35 years, doing so with a highly visible, hands-on style and high level of engagement with their tenants that has fostered an ecosystem where many residents live and work.
