Description:
The 0.76 acre property next to the Zalco building-currently a parking lot and a drive through for a bank-- has been proposed for a thirteen-story (143' tall) mixed use building. Approximately 147, 670 square feet of office uses and 5,070 square feet of retail/service uses would be constructed with two levels of underground parking. Vehicles would enter the front of the building along Georgia Avenue and exit from the rear on Fenton Street Extended. (Note: Fenton Street Extended is actually a private street providing egress from Garage 2. The proposed circulation plan therefore requires an access agreement with Montgomery County.) A significant public use space would be provided behind the proposed building along the extension of Fenton Street. A mid-block pedestrian linkage would be provided through the site connecting Georgia Avenue to Fenton Street Extended. The site is zoned CBD-2 and the proposed project would be constructed at a 4.0 FAR.
