A mixed-use residential and retail development is planned for 119 Beaver Street West. The project, proposed by Michael Boylan and 119 Beaver St W, LLC, will include 259 residential units and 37,000 square feet of ground-floor retail space. A significant portion of the retail space, at least 30,000 square feet, is intended for a Publix grocery store or a similar large grocer. This project is currently under review by the City Council, having passed its initial introduction and readings. The development will likely involve site clearing and grading, underground utility work, concrete and paving for access and parking, vertical construction for the residential and retail structures, and extensive interior and exterior finishing trades. Local contractors, trades, suppliers, and service providers are encouraged to engage early, as this project represents a substantial construction opportunity. Reaching out before final site plans, bids, and permits are settled can provide a competitive advantage in securing work for this large-scale development.
