A proposed 12-story apartment building for downtown Fort Worth is going before city regulators Thursday, and the latest rendering shows a new look for the exterior.

The city’s downtown design review board is scheduled to consider the plans for The Jones at 1000 Jones St., currently a parking lot across from Fort Worth Central Station. As of earlier this summer, the project would have 408 units and a 10-story garage.

Additional details about any changes to the proposed number of units wasn’t immediately available.

The project is proposed by Miami-based developer Resia. It is the latest among several major residential projects in downtown, and one of the largest in terms of units. Developments in the works include the 27-story Deco 969 apartments at 969 Commerce St.

Initial plans for The Jones showed 240 one-bedroom units, 144 two-bedroom units and 24 three-bedroom units. The proximity to the Fort Worth rail station would allow residents to easily commute to Dallas or take a train to DFW Airport.

Resia, formerly AHS Residential, is developing the 322-unit Rayzor Ranch multifamily housing on Heritage Trail in Denton, as well as other projects in Dallas, Houston and Atlanta.
