The plan calls for the entire interior space to be completely removed and reconstructed. The new 1518 square foot apartment will have new energy efficient appliances and heating equipment Low water use fixtures and natural day lighting via the use of skylights. This unit will fit in well with the surrounding other buildings since it will match the uses of the buildings to the north and the south. The exterior of the building will be unchanged except for the patio are on the existing roof to the east. This project should have a positive impact on the surrounding area by reducing the use of public utilities and parking demand by reducing the number of occupants from 5 to 2.
