The project is located near the intersection of North 17th and West Master streets, within a residential area containing existing rowhouses, multifamily buildings, and vacant parcels. The permit identifies the project as R-2 residential occupancy. An earlier zoning permit, issued in November 2024, authorizes a three-unit multi-family building on the property.
The zoning site plan places the building between an existing two-story frame structure to the north and a four-story brick building to the south. The proposed development extends eastward from North 17th Street toward a narrow alley.
The site is located within the RM-1 residential zoning district and measures 1,752 square feet, with a width of 18 feet and a depth of approximately 97 feet. The zoning drawings indicate a building footprint of 1,008 square feet, covering approximately 58 percent of the lot. The rear yard accounts for approximately 743 square feet, with a depth of about 41 feet.
The architectural elevations depict a brick-clad front façade with two windows on each of the upper floors. The ground floor features an arched entrance, a second doorway, and a central window arrangement. Decorative arched detailing appears above the windows. The main roof rises approximately 32 feet above grade, with the front parapet reaching 35 feet. The rear elevation features horizontal siding and paired windows on each floor.
