One Birch

Description

A 13-story, 21-unit luxury tower with a small coffee-shop retail space on an oddly shaped Central Beach lot, needing height, step-back, separation, yard, and balcony waivers. The Central Beach Alliance supported it unanimously and the board recommended approval 9-0.

Impact summary

Adds a tall but context-compatible tower to the beach skyline; neighbors and the Central Beach Alliance raised no objections.
