Developed by , the building would contain apartment units and total square feet. In addition to residential units, there would also be a small, square foot space for ground-floor retail. Designed by , the tower would stand feet tall and sit on a square foot plot. The property is currently occupied by a 3-story commercial building, containing several retail storefronts.
