Document Description
The proposed mixed-use project includes 772 multi-family residences, 680,000 sf of retail/commercial space (including, but not limited to, retail, restaurant, and other non-retail commercial uses), 85,000 sf of office space, 3,541 parking spaces, and onsite open space/recreational amenities. The retail/commercial uses include the renovation of the existing Sears retail store and the relocation of the existing Sears Auto Center to a new location on the project site.
