The project site contains three parcels spanning 0.37 acres in total. The residential project will bring 46 apartment units to a four-story apartment building. The total residential built-up area is 35,557 square feet. An underground parking garage with a capacity of 30 vehicles and eight bicycle parking spaces will be designed on the site. Ground-floor spaces will include residential units and other tenant-serving uses, including a leasing office, a community room, and four bicycle racks.
To achieve a 35 percent density bonus, the developer will set aside 14 affordable units. A rooftop garden is proposed on a portion of the new building. Seven existing ordinance-size trees are proposed for removal.
