25-055 — Mixed-use development with multi-family apartments, hotel, and residential condominiums in Galveston, TX
This is an amendment to an existing Planned Unit Development overlay that increases development intensity on approximately 14.9 acres of unimproved land at Seawall Boulevard and Cove View Boulevard. Key changes include increased heights to 150 feet (11 floors instead of 8), increased FAR from 2.0 to 2.70, and permission for multi-family use in the R-1 portion. The development adds significant density, height, and mixed-use intensity to this waterfront-adjacent site with varied architectural flexibility.
