The Planning and Development Board continued deliberating last Tuesday over several proposed developments in Ithaca, including a new development on Blair Street.

The board gave preliminary site plan approval to a housing development on 114 Catherine St., which was first brought forward earlier this semester. The project, when completed, will add 17 bedrooms to the Collegetown area.

A preliminary drawing shows the proposed Chain Works District on Ithaca’s South Hill near S. Aurora St. / Route 96B. Existing structures of the Emerson industrial site (shown in color) would be repurposed for muliple uses, including housing. Dashed lines signify other areas on the overall site on which future new buildings may be built. Courtesy of City of Ithaca
