Project Description
The project consists of a multi-family housing development with 187 residential units with ground-level lobbies, amenity spaces, and 157 parking spaces at 1248 Fifth Avenue. The building will have primary frontage along Fifth Avenue and the rear along Mission Avenue. The proposal will demolish the existing one-story commercial building on the site.
The application is an SB-330 and State Density Bonus project. The development will provide 15% of the base residential density as very low-income units (187 total units, 19 affordable units, and 61 density bonus units). The affordable units will be evenly dispersed throughout the building. The affordable units shall be 13 one-bedroom units and 6 two-bedroom units. The affordable units will match the market rate units exactly in size and amenities.
