Developers are planning a multi-use development at the former Heritage Cafeteria site at Battlefield and Fremont.
Coryell Collaborative Group acquired the building and a business strip directly to the south on March 17.
The development will feature a five-story building with 95 pet friendly and smoke-free luxury apartment homes and ground floor retail space for shops, restaurants and other merchants, according to a news release. Apartment amenities will include a pool, rooftop fitness center and lounge.
Heritage Cafeteria served Springfield for 56 years before closing in 2016. Sam Coryell, president of Coryell Collaborative Group, said “bringing this new development to life will provide the next generations another way to enjoy this iconic spot.”
The new development is set to break ground in the fall of 2021.
