Street trees will also be planted, creating a pleasant street presence that will benefit the block and increase walkability of the surrounding area.

The address of the development is slightly misleading, as the development will be constructed on the far northeast portion of the property a block north of Girard Avenue, at the intersection of North Franklin Street and West Thompson Street. The new building will stand on land currently occupied by a surface lot and a small grove of trees.
