A proposed 224-unit apartment complex on the former site of the Prince Murat Inn will go before the Planning Commission next week. Humphreys & Partners, a Dallas firm, have submitted plans for the River House development on Nicholson Drive. River House will consist of efficiency, one- and two-bedroom apartments, along with a clubhouse, 15,000 square feet of retail and 34,000 square feet of office space. Over the past few years, there have been several plans to redevelop the Prince Murat site with apartments, offices and retail. But those plans have fallen through because of financing difficulties and zoning problems. Planning Commission staffers have recommended approving the site plan for River House.—Timothy Boone
