The apartments will range from junior one-bedroom units to two-bedroom homes and will be offered through the City’s Affordable Rental Set-Aside Program. Eligibility will be limited to households earning up to 60% of the area median income.

The first phase is expected to deliver seven of the affordable apartments, tentatively in December. The remaining nine units will follow in a later phase.

Margot’s advertised amenities include a 24-hour fitness center, a library with a fireplace, on-site garage parking, bicycle storage, electric-vehicle charging, a swimming pool and a sun deck.
