Project Description

The Proposed Project would consist of a new eight (8) story building with ground floor retail spaces. The street level will contain approximately 1,395 square feet of retail space and 1:1 bicycle parking following BPDA bicycle parking guidelines. One of the two proposed ground floor retail spaces will host the dry cleaners that has served the community since the 1960’s. Floors two through eight will contain twenty (20) total residential units, with a mix of twelve (12) one-bedroom units, seven (7) two-bedroom units, and one (1) three-bedroom unit. The Proposed Project will provide twenty (20) indoor long-term bicycle parking spaces and eight (8) outdoor short-term bicycle parking spaces across four (4) bike racks, for a total of twenty-eight (28) bicycle parking spaces. Trash and recycling will be serviced from Travis Street.
