Seven houses will be demolished and replaced with two new buildings if one of the latest Collegetown projects, which aims to add over 100 beds to the area, is approved.

Early plans for a major new development at 304 College Ave., consisting of two new buildings, were introduced to the Ithaca Planning and Development Board on Tuesday.
