The design of the structure will utilize a masonry exterior topped by a clocktower. The fifth floor will be set back and clad in metal panel. Eight of the residential units will be designated as affordable, with market-rate rents ranging from $1,100 to $2,400. The development will feature an Energy Star roof and appliances, low-flow plumbing fixtures, and EV charging stations.

The developers are seeking a zoning change from B1-1, Neighborhood Shopping District, to B2-3, Neighborhood Mixed-Use District to allow for the larger scope of the project. Before construction can start, the proposal will require aldermanic approval and zoning approval. Once approvals have been obtained, construction can start and is expected to take 12-14 months.
