The building will encompass a mix of studio, one-, and two-bedroom apartments, along with 20,000 square feet of ground-level retail and restaurants. Common amenities at The Guild will include:

  • rooftop pool
  • clubroom
  • hospitality bar and lounge
  • outdoor grills and fire pit
  • fitness center
  • controlled access parking
  • bike storage
  • concierge services

The second phase of Courier Square will feature The Greystar Building, a five-story office structure that will be home to Greystar’s new headquarters. Scheduled for completion this summer, the office component facing Meeting Street will comprise 69,000 square feet, including ground-floor retail.
