Once eyed as part of the baseball stadium proposal in Shockoe Bottom, the former Weiman’s Bakery property at 127 N. 17th St. is being pitched for a 12-story tower.
Developer Louis Salomonsky filed plans with the city Friday for a redevelopment of the roughly half-acre site.
Plans call for an approximately 124-foot tower with 145 apartments at the corner of 17th and East Grace Street. The building would rise beside the existing Weiman’s structure, which would be incorporated into the development.
The rest of the site would be filled with a new two-story parking deck with commercial storefronts along 17th Street. The development would include a total of 85 parking spaces.
