The historic edifice itself will feature 44 mixed-income apartments. The large field behind the school will house 24 new townhouses with the townhomes fronting the streets and some green space behind them.

I'm not quite understanding the orientation of the townhouses pointing towards Mullins Street. It looks like they don't front on the street, instead fronting on some new road running roughly where the fence of the current ballfield is. While this is understandable due to to the grade change - and is possibly for the best considering the townhouses have driveways (meaning surface parking won't be eliminated on Mullins) it will make for an extremely awkward intersection wherever the private road actually comes out.
