SOLO District Phases 3 & 4

Rezoning for Appia’s four tower SOLO District project was approved back in 2012, and since that time two towers have now been substantially sold out, with tower one having been completed, and tower 2 currently under construction.

Appia is now seeking a rezoning amendment to tweak some of the details of the remaining two towers. The design changes include:

• Phase 3 tower:
  • increase height form 39-storeys to 42-storeys
  • decrease unit count from 328 to 280
  • increase commercial area from 18,000 SF to 45,000 SF
• Phase 4 tower:
  • increase tower height from 43-storeys to 48-storeys
  • decrease unit count from 365 to 319
  • increase commercial area from 35,000 SF to 60,000 SF

The architectural design, by Chris Dikeakos, has also been amended.
