Depending on the location, 1,000 square feet might seem like a lot of room to roam or like a smaller space. For example, as a former New York City studio apartment dweller, that size feels humongous.

Plans call for a 367-unit complex on the north side and a 633-unit apartment building on the south side, above 6,131 square feet of shops and restaurants and underground parking for 1,000 cars.
