Senior apartments planned for Semmes Avenue

Richmond BizSense has details (and better pics) of a new apartment building planned for 1903-1905 Semmes Avenue:

The plans from CCC call for a 22,600-square-foot building with 20 apartments above a commercial space and 13 parking spaces. The one-bedroom, 600-square-foot apartments would be restricted to senior residents and fill the two floors above the 1,300-square-foot retail space, a 750-square-foot community room, a lounge, the covered parking spaces and other ground-floor amenities.

Fun fact! This parcel apparently once housed a one story cinderblock ice cream factory in the late 1940s.
