The largest mass-timber structures in the U.S. when completed in 2022, INTRO Cleveland is a mixed-use residential project located in the Ohio City neighborhood. The transit-oriented development is ideally located near a light-rail stop, multiple bus routes, and across from the historic West Side Market.

The nine-story building offers 300 luxury apartments, many with unobstructed downtown and lake views, as well as over an acre of active public green space. The building massing is anchored around an open and active pedestrian plaza, which creates a vibrant extension of the West Side market and will serve as a community gathering space activated by art, cultural and family events. Additional amenities include a 12,500 SF rooftop event venue, a fitness center, patios and bicycle storage.

INTRO’s efficient structural system is comprised of eight mass-timber residential floors on top of a one-story concrete podium. The ninth-floor event space features 60’ long span, queen-post trusses that enable column-free areas. Approximately half of the CLT floors and ceilings are exposed, giving a warm and natural finish.
