The master-planned development will include 80,000 square feet of retail, nearly 200,000 square feet of office space and 435 apartment homes surrounding a one-acre central park with a fountain and amphitheatre. An existing Class-A office tower and parking deck have been integrated into the master development in a seamless effort to complete the master plan.

Post Eastside will bring spacious one- and two-bedroom apartments in four, four-story buildings. The first building, delivering May 1, will offer loft-style apartments followed by a mix of traditional luxury apartments and lofts in the second and third buildings.
