Apartment 92-The Apollo Project Moves Forward: Council approved a 30-year tax increment financing project towards creating a mixed use development project located at 1250 Riverbed Street. The developer will make payments in lieu of taxes (PILOTs) equal to the taxes the school district would have received but for the TIF. The TIF will support debt service related to the project as an incentive to partially offset additional development costs to convert the former industrial building on the west bank of the Flats to a “mixed-use development project.” The Apollo will include approximately 70 apartments and 2,741 sq. ft. of commercial / office space. Total project cost are estimated at $17,958,489.
