It's a Beautiful Day in the Gayborhood

Brickstone Reality has been given the green light from the city to begin development of 80 apartments including retail on the 1100 block of Chestnut Street.

 

L&I requires 24 parking spaces because - well - the city has some pretty stupid requirements when it comes to parking.

Fortunately neighboring garages have already agreed to reserve spaces for the apartment building since they likely won't be needed.

The plan is sweet and simple, certainly not as exciting as Winka Dubbeldam's Unknot Tower once proposed for the site by CREI. Given the current state of East Chestnut best referred to as in flux, sweet and simple - with permanent residents - is just what the doctor ordered.
