Each unit is three bedrooms and four bathrooms, two being full and two being half. Each unit will have a two-car attached garage that loads to the rear of the building, with access being provided from the private drive. Bicycle parking is also being installed in the rear of the building. A sidewalk is being installed along the private drive to connect to the commercial development to the south.
