The interior corridors will connect smaller storefronts along Central Avenue and 11th Street South with larger retail spaces facing 1st Avenue South.
PTM Partners expects the retail space to include a mix of national and local businesses, with opportunities for restaurants, art galleries, and other smaller operators.
“The intention is to create corridors off Central where residents, pedestrians, and visitors can find different experiences,” said Michael Tillman, CEO of PTM Partners.
Tillman added that they believe 1st Avenue South will become increasingly important as development moves forward across the street at the Historic Gas Plant District.
“Central Avenue is amazing, but so is 1st Avenue South,” Tillman said. “Whatever ends up happening on the Gas Plant site will only make that 1st Avenue South corridor more pedestrianized and more active.”
Residents of the new apartment tower will have access to a seventh-floor amenity deck featuring a pool, spa, fitness center, coworking and meeting spaces, and a media room.
