So, are there two locations? Or is the plan now to move to Holland Park instead of Verdae? Does it already exist? I'm confused.

Looks REALLY fun though!

Looks like the original property now has a bunch of apartments built on its driveway.  They will get great visibility in the Holland property, so probably a better choice.

Four story  building that fronts on the respective streets (Ackley and Laurens).  PUD with MF.  I like the site plan but the architecture is wretched awful, IMO.  Think Soviet block style.  Doesn't fit the residential area behind it at all.

I think it's actually fairly interesting in design, and fits with the emerging vibe of this stretch of Lauren Rd -- thinking murals/artsy, breweries and swamp rabbit trail-oriented development that has emerged in the last couple of years between Washington and Pleasantburg.

I was getting vibes of Chernobyl. :D I need to see some better renderings though to make a full assessment about whether I think it should be approved in its current state or not. I agree that the site plan and included retail space  are fine also.
