According to a report, the apartments are a mix of studios, one-bedrooms, two-bedrooms and three-bedrooms. 52 of the apartments will be set aside for the formerly homeless.

Both of the permits were plumbing permits. The developer received initial foundation and new building permits in November 2020.

The project is described in the filings as: new eight-story mixed-use dwelling.

According to the plans, the ground floor of the building will have a lobby, vestibule, laundry room, library, common room, recreation space, and 10 dwelling units. Floors two through eight will each have 11 dwelling units per floor. The cellar will have office space.

The property was acquired with two other properties for $10.8 million on December 17, 2020.
