The first floor of the new building is set to include small retail spaces near the entrance. The back of the first floor would feature a showroom and receiving area for the Brick & Mortar store furniture, as well as an area where the furniture for the store would be assembled. The second floor of the building is set to include three 1,100 square-feet spaces that would be used either as apartment units or Airbnb rental spaces.
