Homes & property types
Multifamily housing in the Central Route 66 Residential district, with homes, businesses and light industry elsewhere along the corridor. Which subdistrict a parcel is in decides what can be built there.
What makes properties here different
On the corridor, the subdistrict can matter as much as the building. A lot zoned Central Route 66 Residential carries a 24-unit-per-acre minimum density for new housing, which is a different story for a buyer than a lot in a commercial subdistrict. Confirm the subdistrict with the City before setting a price.
