A PNF (pdf) was posted for this earlier this month. It includes some more details, elevations, and a few renders/sketches.

Looks like you're typical 5-over-1 project.

Seems like a reasonable parking ratio for the area.

Every time a new residential development is announced or progresses it feels like whenever Jerry Lewis would order up the timpani while updating the tote board during his telethons........

Keep it going - - - we need the housing numbers badly!!!!!!!

From New Years Day--Mods, I think this thread can be updated to "Harper Boston".

City needs to impose maximum lot sizes and ban multifamily stick built projects.

Isnt the indie on the left in that picture? It looks like the wrapped piece is a part of this development, a concrete core maybe?

Oh sorry, I misunderstood the question--yes the wrapped piece is part of the Rugg Rd project I believe.
