About to happen at 13th and bainbridge. Grass lot + 5 mature trees got auctioned off by the city for apartments. Neighbors fought it for months but one of the neighborhood coalitions changed their mind after the developer added a couple of parking spots.

Sounds good on paper but only 13 units fit the “affordable “ threshold, the rest are just market rate.

I linked the box below that I installed in 2020, still working out really well. It's metal and looks a little less cheap than the plastic boxes. The box wasn't cheap but it has saved me a few times when I wasn't home to receive packages. u/whomdoneit linked a Bradford box further down that looks REALLY good if you can't / don't want to have a freestanding box.
