Robert Roskamp purchased the property from Universal last fall and is pursuing a by-right development that will entail the preservation of the building's facade on South Street, 57 apartment units and a large retail space in a mixed-use building on South Street, and a row of seven townhomes on Kater Street. OCF Realty will be managing the construction of the project. This project will go to Civic Design Review (CDR) in May, where an appointed advisory committee will review various design elements of the project. This public meeting is being hosted as a requirement of the CDR process. To find out more about this important project in our neighborhood, please come to the meeting, which will take place at the SOSNA office, 1901 Christian.   Neighborhood Survey: Please take a minute to complete a neighborhood survey which is part of a research project being conducted by a graduate student at Presidio Graduate School. The purpose of the survey is to understand the impacts of growth in our neighborhood. We'd love to hear about your experience living in the neighborhood and your vision for our community!   The survey should only take 5-7 minutes and your responses are completely anonymous. The survey will close on Sunday, April 16. Thank you.
