Nelson Construction & Development's mixed-use project that will fill the east side of Seventh Street north of Grand Avenue will operate under a new name and two addresses when it is taken up for consideration Tuesday by the Des Moines Urban Design Review Board.

Alexander Grgurich, development analyst for Nelson, said the firm is bringing a boutique living experience to the city.
