Join me on Tuesday October 1 for a neighborhood meeting regarding 306 S Brearly. SARA Investment Real Estate proposes to redevelop the property located at 306 S. Brearly Street, currently the home of Alimentari. The existing one-story building would be demolished and a six-story, mixed-use building would be constructed. The new building would be comprised of approximately 1,500-2,000 square feet of first floor commercial space, approximately 122 market-rate apartments, and approximately 130 enclosed parking stalls, including five public parking stalls. The apartments would be a mix of studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom units.

A virtual neighborhood meeting to hear more about this redevelopment proposal is scheduled for Tuesday, October 1, 2024, at 6:30pm.
