The Joinery, a 443-unit mixed-use development, is complete at 1816 N Brevard St and 420 E 22nd St in Optimist Park. The 7-story, 350,000-square-foot project was developed by Space Craft with architecture by Shook Kelley. County permit records show its buildings at 1816 N Brevard St and 420 E 22nd St were finished between October 2024 and June 2026.

The project includes 67 parking spaces, a notably low count for its size, and leans on shared and alternative transportation: an electric car share, an e-bike share, and bike storage.

Amenities include a rooftop patio, courtyard, co-working space, multiple fitness rooms, BBQ grills, and a community market. Sustainability features include rooftop solar panels and in-unit composting.

The site sits near the 25th Street station on the LYNX Blue Line, with rail access to Uptown and University City. North Brevard Street connects the site to the Mill District and Belmont.

Correction, Oct. 21, 2026: An earlier version of this story said The Joinery was completed June 30, 2024. County permit records show its buildings at 1816 N Brevard St and 420 E 22nd St were finished between October 2024 and June 2026.
