The subject site is located off of 127th Pl SE between SE 172 St and SE Petrovitsky Rd and includes the following parcels: 3956200010, 3956200020, 3956200030, 3956200040, 3956200080, and 3956200080. The project site totals approximately 195,800 square feet (4.5 acres) in area and is located within the Residential 10 du/ac (R-10) zoning classification.

The proposal would replace the remaining four unbuilt buildings with three, four-unit buildings. The total number of units in the development at project completion would be 35 (23 previously constructed + 12 proposed units). Access to both the existing and proposed units on site is via a private road that dead ends at the southern boundary of the site.
