On the heels of the announcement that grocer will open its 13^th location on North Williams Avenue, early plans came out today for a new residential project across the street from the store.

The grassy, half-acre lot on the corner of North Williams Avenue and Fremont Streets has seen several proposed developments come and go over the past few years. The from , which owns the land, include a 15,305-square-foot, 45-foot-tall building with 14 on-site parking spaces on the southern portion of the lot, as well as a 52,272-square-foot, 65-foot-tall building with 20 on-site parking spaces to the north. The conceptual plans for both buildings include a mix of residential units and retail space.

A pre-application conference will be held on Jan. 31.

Earlier this year, the Portland Development Commission was considering the lot as an option for the proposed Green Innovation Park. Prior to that, a plan for condominiums fell through, according to Kaiser Group’s co-founder Ben Kaiser.

The developers of the North Portland New Seasons are also thinking about building more residential units on the south side of the lot where the market is to be built. And developer Jack Menashe, whose 84-unit, mixed-use building is nearing completion on the north corner of Fremont Street and Williams Avenue, has also proposed another, similar project just a few blocks away.
