Block 1 will include 288 apartment homes along with 8,000 square feet of amenity space.
Block 4 will include 310 apartment homes with more than 13,000 square feet of amenity space.
Both buildings will have rooftop terraces and the buildings will share a courtyard pool.
The buildings will vary in height from 4-8 stories with an internal courtyard in each building.
Two levels of below-grade parking will be located under each building.
Western portion of Wilkes Street Park between Blocks 1 and 4
In future PHASE 2, JLREP will complete Block 2 improvements and the eastern interim portion of the Wilkes Street Public Park. The park will be finalized on the eastern side by the future Block 3 developer.
In accordance with the federal Housing Assistance Program ("HAP"), 140 apartments of the newly built 598 will be targeted for the HAP-eligible families who previously lived at The Heritage at Old Town, and these apartments will be interspersed throughout the two new buildings.
