The affiliate of MarMar Group, which is a family-owned residential owner, developer, and manager, acquired the property, which at the time held a two-story duplex, for $1.4 million, according to a transaction recorded with the county in 2018. A demolition permit for the structure was issued the following year, city records show.

The developer is requesting transit-oriented communities incentives including a 25-percent open-space reduction, 30-percent setback reduction for both sides, and 22-foot height increase to about 67 feet for the proposed development. The project would contain five one-bedrooms, six two-bedrooms, and one three-bedrooms, plans show, with two units set aside for very low-income households.

The project would also provide seven automobile spaces in a one-level subterranean garage, along with 14 bicycle spaces.

Jacques Mashihi of West Pacifica Design Construction is listed as the project representative for 1047 S. Corning St.
