CA Ventures has decided to go with a shorter building than originally envisioned for a site within Dinkytown.



Located at 407 15th Street SE, the project is proposed to be constructed on a site that today is home to four different sites at the corner of 15th Avenue SE and 4th Street SE (yes, one of those sites is home to McDonald’s). In August, CA Ventures presented two massing studies to the city showing what a potential building could look like in size, one of which was 25 stories in height. Since then, CA Ventures has further defined their plans for project, in the end deciding that a 10-story building would be adequate. The lower building height also means that a comprehensive plan amendment will not be needed.
