Across the building’s four stories are a ground floor community space for member-led events, a roof deck with views of the city, and front and rear terraces for outdoor living. Like all of the other co-living properties managed by Common, Common Damen will include weekly cleanings, shared supplies, and all-inclusive utilities like enterprise-quality Wi-Fi, and heating and air.
