State College Borough Council voted 4-2 on Monday to deny a developer’s request to close a portion of Hetzel Street for about two years during construction of a high-rise apartment building.
Chicago-based Core Spaces and its construction manager Massaro Corporation sought to close Hetzel Street between East College Avenue and East Calder Way from Dec. 22 until Nov. 28, 2023 for construction of the 12-story mixed-use building. Pedestrian access would be maintained on the east side of Hetzel, but the closure would have meant through-traffic would be prohibited on Hetzel from East College Avenue to East Beaver Avenue.
Under the rejected proposal, the road would be open for one lane of traffic during special event periods such as Penn State football weekends and student apartment move-in. Vehicle and pedestrian access would be maintained on Calder and College, though a covered, lighted walkway would be installed adjacent to the project site on College, where five parking spaces also
The mixed-use development will include retail space, plus living units.

RENDERINGS OF THE PROPOSED BUILDING BY STUDIO ST. GERMAIN
Sewickley’s main shopping district is about to get a little greener as construction readies for a sustainable new mixed-use development.
Sewickley-based Studio St. Germain, which specializes in high-performance building with an emphasis in sustainable building principles, is overseeing design for the project at the corner of Beaver and Walnut streets.
Plans for 400-402 Beaver Street, which once housed The Village Melt, as well as Esthetics of Sewickley spa and hair salon (which has since moved to a location on nearby Division Street), include adding a retail space and living units, plus a new third level.
