Peerless and Hostess Sites Complement One Another

by Jeff on June 29, 2009 · 2 comments

Hostess and Peerless Confection Company Residential Site Plans Revised plans for the former Peerless Confection Company site are up for further neighborhood discussion and review. Looking at the Hostess site and Peerless site plans side-by-side as they face one another across Lakewood Avenue, they seem to complement one another nicely.

The Hostess site’s very symmetrical, uniform lines seem softened by the Peerless site’s softer, almost organic plan due to the varied building types, shapes, and sizes. Large setbacks along Lakewood used in both plans and even a park run by NeighborSpace at the southwest corner of the Hostess plan allow for ample green space.

Any idea on what’s the latest on this project?

From what I understand, plans I posted on earlier (with some modifications) still stand. Peerless is still in planning and neighborhood review. Hostess is still in pre-sales and no idea when construction will begin but this is no surprise given the market.
