Draper OKs eBay’s development plans

Online auction house eBay won approval for its plans to build in the city’s transit-oriented district. The City Council unanimously approved eBay’s master area plan, which shows the company completing an office park at 12880 S. Galena Park Blvd. (5500 West) by 2018, with the first phase completed by April 2013.

The plan breaks the project into three phases on 36.38 acres. The first phase includes a three-story, 192,000-square-foot office building; a one-story 51,000-square-foot employee amenity building; and 1,800 parking spaces for 1,900 employees. Subsequent phases would add two four-story, 128,000-square-foot office buildings and a parking structure. Salt Lake Tribune
