PROVIDENCE – A proposed apartment building, called Edge College Hill 2, has received approval for a height bonus that would allow an 11-story building at the base of College Hill.

The Providence Downtown Design Review Committee on Monday is scheduled to continue a public hearing on the project, and vote on additional requests, including a conceptual design.

The project would provide rental apartments for college students and be built over an existing parking area. It would wrap around the historic Congdon & Carpenter Building on Steeple Street.
