"The first example features a parking plinth and residential tower configuration, along with ground-level walk-out units facing north towards MacArthur Square. The two buildings are separated by a pedestrian walkway. The building placement identifies a new street connecting N James Lovell St. to N 9th St. Each building includes 2-3 levels of underground parking, with 8-13 residential levels above. The residential towers can each accommodate 23 or 24 standard-sized residential units per floor. There is also opportunity for street-level retail at the corner of James Lovell St. and W Wells St. as well as the corner of W Wells St. and N 9th St.," according to project consultants.
