The Federal Federal Aviation Administration has given the green light for the Downtown 6th apartment tower to be built.
The 54-story tower is being planned by developer Melo Group.
A Determination of No Hazard letter was sent to the developer on July 14. The proposed height was first submitted to the FAA on January 26.
Downtown 6th is approved to rise 574 feet above ground, or 587 feet above sea level, the letter states.
The work schedule for the building is estimated to run from July 1, 2023 through December 30, 2024, according to the January FAA filing.
Downtown 6th is planned to include:
- 824 residential units
- 2,427 square feet of commercial space
- 639 parking spaces, with a garage masked with habitable liner units
The UDRB recommended approval of the development in February.
A construction permit was applied for in May, and is in process.
