This property is zoned RM-2 Multifamily Dwelling District Conditional and was approved in 2004 for a 46 unit condominium building.The original approved plans called for a single four story 46-unit brick condominium building with enclosed parking on the ground floor, and three stories of condominiums above.The project has not been built.
The developer indicated that the proposal is in response to the current economy and general marketability of condos.
This proposal significantly reduces the density as originally originally proposed Surprisingly the proposal asks that the number of dwelling be reduced from 46 condos to 30 town homes .
The City’s Architectural Review Board approved a conceptual plan and building elevations in August 2012
Pictured below are the new proposed elevations showing three story townhomes with front facing garages. Similar to what was built in Liberty Crossing by Ryan Townhomes. At this time no builder has been announced.
