The project includes a 100-unit condo building with 10,000 square feet of retail space and 15,000-square-foot art gallery.

Construction of One Museum Place is expected to begin after Labor Day with completion in late 2009, said Lynn Vicchiolla, pre-sales manager for John Wieland Homes & Neighborhoods.
