The applicant's intent (stated in the notice to the September 27, 2017, neighborhood workshop) "is to construct a second phase to The Nine apartment complex."
The subject property is located at the southwest corner of SW 11th Avenue and SW 11th Terrace, and is adjacent and east of the 3.7-acre, 4-story, 188-unit, multi-family development called "The Nine" (Phase 1) that is currently under construction.

The property is in the UF Context Area and is in the College Park/University Heights Community Redevelopment Area.
