STEVENS POINT, WI (WSAU-WAOW) — The Stevens Point City Council has approved a plan for new apartments and retail space at the site of the former KMart building on Division Street.
As part of the plan the city will contribute $2.1 million to the complex, which will include 133 apartment units and a mixed-use retail space.
The apartments would be geared towards UWSP students and faculty, as well as those working in the new Sentry Insurance building down the street. Mayor Mike Wiza has previously told WSAU News the complex will be bicyclist-friendly as well with a covered bike parking area.
