The design by SPACE Architects + Planners involves a stone-clad first floor, while the upper floors will be enveloped in a beige-brick facade with dark metal window accents. The design also comes with various bays and a central stone-clad protrusion that spans the full height.

Earlier this June, the developer received full approval from the Chicago Plan Commission, in which the prior zoning of RM-5 was changed to B2-3. The developer also received approval to re-designate the property as a transit-served location which allowed for a reduction in parking spaces.

Beyond the on-site parking spaces, residents will have bus access to Routes 135 and 148, available via a three-minute east to Clarendon & Sunnyside. A three-minute walk west, meanwhile, to Sheridan & Sunnyside are additional stops for Route 151. One block further west at Broadway & Sunnyside are stops for 36 and 78. For those looking to board the CTA L Purple and Brown Lines, Wilson station is accessible via an eight-minute walk northwest.
