Project: This six-storey mixed-use development will bring 42 apartment units and two commercial retail spaces to a .25-acre site. The residential mix includes studios, one-bedroom units, and live/work options, catering to various urban lifestyles. Retail spaces on the main floor will activate the streetscape into the surrounding community.
Stage: The rezoning process is underway, with an application submitted at the pre-CALUC stage in February 2025. The proposal seeks to shift from C1-NM and R1-B zoning to a tailored site-specific designation that aligns with the city’s urban growth plans.
