Hot take?:

It would be nice if there were an overlay bonus where developers could build an extra floor if they include small retail units or not include parking.

I could be wrong (someone fact check me) but I think because this is within the TOD they’re required to include retail.

It definitely looks to include retail at the corner and the building description is “Mixed-Use”, I just think they didn’t call it out specifically.

This home is about to have 61 vertical feet of apartments overshadowing their lot.

I’m replying to you specifically but anyone can answer lol. Does the language mention a preferred or recommended size of the retail spaces?

It would be nice for the overall outcome to be that we have more small retail spaces instead of big box stores under housing.

Yes, there’s actually a limitation on size of retail.

Awful photo on the go by me but it looks like Left Hook is getting things going on construction. The shipping container seems to be for them. Their permit mentioned a deck, I think that’s what’s going up in the back.
