The project proposes demolition of the existing Macy's Southdale Furniture and Mattress Gallery and construction of four mixed-use buildings across four parcels: an 11-story building on the southwest parcel with offices, senior condominiums, retail, restaurant, and parking; a 7-story building on the northwest parcel with offices, apartments, retail, and parking; a 7-story apartment building on the northeast parcel with parking; and a 7-story building on the southeast parcel with apartments, restaurant space, and parking. Total estimated value exceeds $300 million. The developer emphasized compliance with Greater Southdale District guidelines focused on pedestrian-first, walkable design that breaks down superblocks into smaller blocks. The project centers on mixed-use development with pedestrian accessibility as a core principle.
