On May 5, 2017, RREEF America REIT Corp BBB II submitted an application to amend conditions of approval imposed in 2014 when the City Council approved the remodeling and expansion of the Manhattan Village Shopping Center.
In 2016, the City approved a refined site plan that changed the construction sequence of the project to construct the Northeast parking structure and consolidate Macy’s first, and made other modifications to respond to comments made by the public. In light of the refinements to the project design, the Applicant is now requesting corresponding modifications to the 2014 conditions of approval.
