The triangular project would be 11 stories tall plus a penthouse, and there would also be up to 70 parking spaces on two below-grade levels. The unit mix will likely span from studios to two-bedrooms with dens, and 15% of the residential space will be Inclusionary Zoning affordable to households earning up to 60% of area median income (AMI), with the exception of one or two units at 50% of AMI.

The double-height ground floor will be set back from the lot line to create space along 7th Street for a pocket park, public art, terraced seating, and potential outdoor dining. Residential amenities will include a fitness center and a pool terrace.

The development team expects to file a PUD application in two weeks; plans were shared with ANC 6D on Monday evening. Additional renderings are below.
