Outdoor spaces include a patio at the rear of the first floor, front balconies on the second and third floors, and a private rooftop deck. Steel egress stairs will connect all levels at the rear of the building.
A three-car masonry garage at the back of the lot will have a roof deck of its own. Wood fences will enclose the north and south sides of the property, and a metal fence will be added at the building’s front. Eduard Livano is named as the architect of record.

An existing masonry home on the parcel will be torn down to make room for the new units. Real estate site Redfin shows a May sale of the home, built in 1911, for $775,000 to the developer. The demolition permit was issued on August 18, with Carlos Group assigned to demo duty at a reported cost of $20,000.
