About this property
A New Mid-Rise Opening in 2026
This eight-story mid-rise is new enough that its 2026 completion date makes it one of the newest options in the area, 77 apartments with high ceilings, large windows, and updated kitchens and bathrooms throughout. Hardwood floors and in-unit washers and dryers are standard in every unit. The building keeps its amenity list modest and functional — a basic fitness center and secured entry, without the sprawling shared-space approach of larger new construction nearby. Parking is covered in an attached garage, and bike storage rounds out the ground floor. At just 77 units, it's a small-scale addition to the neighborhood's newer housing stock rather than a full-block development.
