New Changes to Proposed Restaurant Based on Feedback
The team at Selby Gardens continues to listen and respond to feedback about the Master Plan. In response to concerns about the restaurant, they have made the following changes:
- Reduced the restaurant area by a minimum of 25 percent
- Relocated the dining terrace from the south end to the north end of building (along US 41/Mound), while removing the western portion of the terrace
- Relocated the edible garden from rooftop to restaurant level
- Eliminated roof elevator access that was necessary for the rooftop edible garden resulting in a seven foot reduction in the highest point of structure
These changes are in addition to the millions of dollars in improvements that they have made to the plan throughout the course of the process as a result of neighborhood input. To learn more about all the changes, please read here.
