New Rental Towers May Be Coming to 6th & Manila

0

Big changes may be coming to the neighborhood surrounding the Roberto Clemente Baseball Field on 6th and Manila. City officials are looking to construct 30- and 40-story rental towers in the surrounding area affecting the blocks in between Marin and Manilla and 6th and 8th streets. In addition to the new towers, the proposed Roberto Clemente Redevelopment Plan (PDF) could result in:

  • the creation of a new school
  • construction of a new firehouse facility
  • reopening 7th street to connect Manila and Marin
  • reconstructing the Roberto Clemente Baseball Field

Everything is in early phases and officials are currently seeking the public’s opinion. You can take a survey here.
