Under the proposal, the master-planned community would be home to 3,500 residential units, an office tower and an elevated railway park. Developers CRAFT Development Group, Kingsmen Group Inc. and Fengate Asset Management announced that, if approved, the development would cover a sprawling community named the ORCA Project.
