Property development

  • A zoning application has been filed for the property at 2773 Kincaid Street, proposing to divide it into two separate lots designated for middle housing. This application seeks final approval to create these two legal lots, which will accommodate middle housing units. Middle housing typically includes housing types such as duplexes, triplexes, or townhouses, designed to provide more affordable and diverse housing options within residential neighborhoods. The project aims to increase housing availability and offer more choices for residents in the area. (view application)
