Giant Parcel Becoming Peachtree Apartments

One of America?s largest home builders is on a path to develop an apartment community in the affluent Peachtree Corners neighborhood. Lennar Multifamily Investors is under contract to purchase a 20-acre tract for $7M along Peachtree Parkway.
 

Here's the conceptual design, as told to Paul Czanne. The land is across from The Forum on Peachtree Parkway mixed-use center. The seller is Roberts Realty, according to SEC filings, and the sale of the undeveloped parcel is set to close Feb. 7. Lennar?s Chris Cassidy  tells us the firm is planning to start development this year on a 250-plus luxury apartment community that will be integrated with other local developers into a mixed-use project  involving retail, office and townhomes; Lennar will also do the townhomes. Delivery is slated for Q3 2014. Chris says Lennar worked to  integrate the different uses together. The design has been submitted to the city.

Charles says he plans to break ground this year on a more than 350-unit apartment complex there.
