City staffers have weighed in favorably on a plan to construct a six-story office building that would consolidate area employees of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers on the Mobile Civic Center property.
office building that would consolidate area employees of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers on the Mobile Civic Center property.
The plan is before the Mobile Architectural Review Board. The board’s staff has made some recommendations but gives overall positive marks. The Mobile Planning Commission next week will hold a public hearing on a rezoning proposal that could dramatically alter the existing Civic Center. District 2 City Councilman William Carroll told FOX10 News that he favors major development – as long as it respects the surrounding neighborhood.
The Architectural Review Board document includes several preliminary renderings for what the building might look like. According to the site plan, trees along Canal Street would have to be removed to comply with Corps of Engineers security requirements.
