Looks like the carriage house will be developed as a little retail space with a little Pirates Alley leading to to the residential entrance. Good spot for a cute lil grab-n-go coffee shop with outdoor seating like Pickwick Place in Chicago.
Also: apparently Poydras Home has owned this property since 1817, and will continue to own the property (development is done via ground lease). I love when development history unfolds over centuries like this.

Yes they also leased the property that will house two saints the co op living building.
