First proposed late last year, plans call for an approximately 17,100-square-foot, 50-foot-tall residential building rising in place of a vacant lot at 963 S. Wilton Place.

The applicant and owner behind the proposed development is listed as Todd Weiss of 963 South Wilton Investors LLC, which acquired the project site in 2019 for $1.25 million, county property records show.

City approvals include Tier-2 project incentives under the city’s transit-oriented communities program, including a 45-percent increase in density over the otherwise allowed 11 units. The project will include two units reserved for extremely low-income households, per TOC requirements.

The new community will contain one studio apartment, seven one-bedrooms, and eight two-bedrooms over a 12-stall underground parking garage. It will also provide about 2,000 square feet of open space that includes balconies on both sides of the building, along with amenities such as a recreation room.

The Ketter Group Senior Project Architect John Friedman is listed as the project architect for the planned 963 South Wilton Place development.
