Previously tracked only by its general East Bank location, the newly reported address, unit count, square footage, and hotel component establish it as one of the larger mixed-use proposals on the East Bank.

Amenities include a 3-acre linear park and greenway, street-level retail, and curated food and beverage offerings, consistent with the broader redevelopment pattern across the Cumberland from downtown.

Correction, Oct. 21, 2026: An earlier version of this story called Station East a new proposal with zoning approvals still ahead. The site already has specific plan zoning, approved by Metro in 2021, and RMR is eyeing an early 2028 start.
