A reader recently pointed us to a rendering of the townhouse development that is under construction on State Street between Smith and Hoyt. According to the website for Rogers Marvel Architects, 25 to 27 single-family townhouses are being built as part of a mixed-use master plan for the block. The first phase will see the construction of 14 market-rate, 3,200-square-foot houses. We infer that at least some of the remaining 11 to 13 houses will be for lower-income residents. From the rendering, it looks like the exteriors of these places will be tastefully done, though it’s hard to see much detail. If anyone in the nabe can snap a photo of the site in progress for us, we’d certainly appreciate it. Our tipster also notes that across the street on Hoyt there is an 8-story, 158-unit building called the State Renaissance on the rise. Thanks, JN!
