On top of the retail component, the proposed design calls for the addition of 280 units for residential use in a tower--including the lower retail floors--that will top out at 47 stories. The units are currently in the works to be designed as condominiums with the hope of attaining a Silver LEED certification, with features, among others, that include rainwater storage, high-efficiency lighting and operable windows--which naturally ventilate the building in order to reduce the burden on heating and cooling systems--among others, to be determined.

The mixed-use facility still needs approval from the citizen advisory council and requires permits from the city. The approval process should last the summer and the developer estimates--if the project is approved--by the fall a timeline can be set for the project's completion.
