Proposal

The applicant is requesting a modification to a previously approved 10-story mixed-use building design to address issues discovered during the building permit process. The modifications include a variance to reduce the front yard setback from 10 feet to 8 feet and a waiver of the clear pedestrian path requirement due to conflicts with future Abbott Avenue road raising projects.
