The initial plans call for two live-work units along Artesian, as well as a small parking garage at the rear, with space for approximately 20 vehicles. The team also floated the idea of reducing the amount of parking in favor of adding retail space. In total, the building would include 33 residential units, all of which would be two-bedroom apartments. Seven of these units will be designated as affordable.
