The public is invited to attend tonight’s Spruce Hill Community Association (SHCA) Zoning Committee meeting to learn more about new development projects in the area. Some of the projects on the agenda (see below) were presented at earlier meetings, and this is an opportunity for community members to ask questions or provide comments. The meeting will take place at the SCHA office (257 S. 45th St), beginning at 7 p.m.

The meeting will discuss the following three projects:

• Apartment building at 4045 Baltimore (see rendering): Presentation and discussion of façade materials for use at this apartment complex under construction. This project was presented for the community last year and submitted for approval by the Zoning Board of Adjustment at the end of 2017. 

• 4524 Walnut Street: Six additional apartment units and a day care center are being proposed at the site. This is an official RCO (Registered Community Organization) meeting for this project which was previously discussed twice by the committee.

• 4312 Market Street: proposal for lot consolidation and construction of a 42-unit building. This project was discussed informally at the April committee meeting, but will now be taken up at an official RCO session. The building is being proposed on the lot until recently occupied by Camsa Auto Sales (see Google Street View image below).
