A school, retail space and a waterfront esplanade will be also be built on the property.
So far, the partnership has wrapped up construction on two rental towers, with $600 million estimated in project costs. Leasing for a 30-story, 365-unit building and a 40-story, 415-unit tower is expected to start at the close of summer, the May 24 report noted.
The joint venture obtained $137 million in funding for a 30-story, 373-unit building at the development in November 2017. At the time, the project was expected to comprise 11 buildings.
