AP 26-0052 — 529 Central Avenue
Description
A revised plan for a 4,028-square-foot penthouse apartment above an existing downtown commercial building, continued from July and reworked to satisfy board and neighbor concerns. Approved as submitted.
Impact summary
Could add a luxury rental unit downtown but neighbors worry about blocked views and party-prone rooftop decks; the redesign should soften the impact.
