As discussed a recent pre-application meeting with staff, the proposal is to infill the existing parking lot with a new mixed-use building that will wrap around the Algonquin Building creating an approximate 4,000 sf commercial space on Broadway with 112 residential units on the above floors. The building will incorporate parking spaces for residents within a below grade parking garage with access from Maple Avenue. The building would step back on the sixth story and incorporate a usable green roof on that sixth floor to handle stormwater treatment and common space for the building residents. The patio space created between the existing Algonquin building and new proposed building will provide a space for private residential gatherings and commercial outdoor dining opportunities. A civic space will be created along the Broadway frontage to be used for public art, performance, and respite. The streetscape along the redeveloped parcel will be improved and will integrate into the neighboring streetscape. The project as proposed is compliant with the new UDO UC (T-6) zoning criteria and the applicant would like to gain input from the planning board prior to commencing with a formal application to the board this fall, please let us know if this request is granted so that the owner and design team can properly prepare for the meeting.
