VIENNA, VA – Middleburg Communities announced it has closed on a 13.48-acre land parcel at 9002 Brook Road in Glen Allen, Virginia. Middleburg plans to develop a 310-unit, class-A apartment and rental townhome community on the site ( The Brook ), marking one of only a select few market-rate developments to be built in the area in the last 20 years. Construction of The Brook is slated to begin this month, with the community scheduled to open in late-2024.
We are pleased to have acquired this strategic land parcel just 15 minutes from downtown Richmond, stated Selim Tay-Agbozo, President of Middleburg Development. Northern Richmond has been underserved for two decades now, and the pace of development has lagged the growth the area has experienced during this time. As such, there is a tremendous need for the type of product we plan to build. We look forward to leveraging our institutional-quality development platform to develop this project on time and to providing the residents in the area with a high quality, vibrant community to call home.
The Brook will be developed as a joint venture between Middleburg as development manager and The Resmark Companies ( Resmark ) as investment partner. The apartment part of The Brook will consist of five, 4-story apartment buildings with elevator service totaling 274 units, and will offer a mix of one-, two-, and three-bedroom floorplans. The townhome portion of the community will be made up of six, 6-unit buildings with two- and three-bedroom floorplans complete with private garages. What s more, one of the apartment buildings will have an integrated clubhouse that is open to all residents and a leasing center, while the property will be equipped with a number of premium amenities, such as high-end interiors with upscale finishes, an outdoor swimming pool, a fitness center and yoga studio, grilling stations, a dog park, a pet spa, electric vehicle charging stations and more.
Middleburg is our ideal partner for The Brook development given its extensive track record of generating value for its investment partners, commented Stephen O Neil, Senior Vice President of Investments at Resmark. The opportunity to be part of The Brook was very attractive for us because of the lack of inventory that currently exists in the coveted northern section of Richmond, which possesses many of the qualities that make it an ideal destination to raise a family – strong employment, educational and cultural opportunities. We look forward to delivering a community that matches the character of the area.
Situated along US Route 1 in Henrico County, the location of The Brook is a 20-minute rush hour drive from 60 percent of all jobs in the MSA. What s more, the site is proximate to several other major developments, including GreenCity, a proposed 204-acre, $2.3 billion mixed-use ecodistrict which is slated to break ground this year, and Virginia Center Commons, a 775,000 square foot mall that is currently being redeveloped to add a mix of residential and retail uses alongside an indoor sports and 4,500-seat convocation center. The Brook is the second multifamily community Middleburg plans to develop in the Richmond MSA. Earlier this year, the company announced it will break ground on Hamlet Watkins Centre, a 283-home build-to-rent community in Midlothian later this year.
I am very excited that one of the first development projects I will be overseeing since joining Middleburg is The Brook, said Robin Bettarel, Managing Director of Development for Middleburg s Mid-Atlantic Region. The type of residential community we are building is pretty much non-existent in the submarket, so we expect to see significant demand for The Brook given all that the property will have to offer.

DENVER, CO – Mortenson, a top-20 U.S. builder, developer, and engineering services provider with four decades of experience in Colorado, alongside joint venture partner Pinnacle Partners, celebrated the groundbreaking of Revival on Platte in Denver’s Sun Valley neighborhood, a first-of-its-kind multifamily project that will showcase the full breadth of Mortenson’s develop, design, fabricate and build capabilities.
“We’re thrilled to partner with the Pinnacle team on this incredible opportunity, as both organizations share a commitment to development that addresses core community needs,” said Brian Fitzpatrick, Vice President and General Manager of Mortenson Denver. “We have a long history in Denver of bringing together our develop, design and build capabilities for our project partners. Fabrication is the final piece in this puzzle, and we can’t wait to show the market what our BLUVera team is capable of on this project.”
The project, Revival on Platte, is situated on a .9-acre building site in a designated Opportunity Zone adjacent to the South Platte River. The new 234,156 SF development will feature 200 studio, one- and two-bedroom apartment options across eight stories with two levels of parking. Residents will also have access to an on-site gym, business center and a rooftop amenity deck offering city and mountain views. The entire structure will be built with Mortenson’s cold-formed metal stud, steel-framed structural system with prefabricated interior and exterior walls.
“In these current challenging economic times, we are particularly excited to close on our construction financing and break ground on Revival on Platte with our development partner. This transformative development will bring much-needed housing to Denver’s rapidly growing Sun Valley neighborhood,” said Leo Backer, Managing Partner from Pinnacle Partners. “Revival on Platte serves as a shining example of the potential impact of Opportunity Zones on communities across the country.”
Close to downtown attractions – including universities at the Auraria campus, Meow Wolf and Empower Field – the new multifamily development is additionally near public transit systems and offers direct access to roughly 90 miles of bike trails. Residents will also have access to eight electric cars via a third-party app, further expanding transit options.
“We’re always looking for ways to optimize processes for our clients and for our own development team,” said Taber Sweet, Vice president of Real Estate Development at Mortenson Denver. “This level of vertical integration represents the full manifestation of that goal. The location of this project is also incredible, as it’s adjacent to Denver’s Stadium District Master Plan, and aligns well with the comprehensive development strategy for the Sun Valley community.”

IRVINE, CA – WNC, a leading provider of investment, asset management and development services in the affordable housing industry, announced it has closed WNC Institutional Tax Credit Fund 54, L.P. (Corp 54), a low-income housing tax credit (LIHTC) fund totaling $172.8 million in equity from a total of eight institutional investors.

Equity raised by the fund will be used to construct and renovate 1,331 affordable housing units across 14 properties in Arkansas, Georgia, Idaho, Indiana, Massachusetts Michigan, Minnesota, Nebraska, New York, Ohio, South Dakota, Tennessee and Texas. Some of the funds’ units are set aside for special populations, including veterans, homeless or at risk of homelessness, Native Americans/tribal projects and extremely low-income households.
Among the projects within the fund is Patriot Park, a 60-unit affordable housing development in Fayetteville, Arkansas that is exclusively for veterans experiencing homelessness, low-income veterans and veterans with disabilities, as well as their families. Thirteen of the 60 units are set aside for veterans with incomes of up to 30% of the region’s annual median income.

The Veterans Health Care System of the Ozarks is easily accessible via Interstate 49. Service providers will provide direct aid and care for Patriot Park residents via visits to the community.
Other notable projects within the fund are Canvas Apartments and New Point Family Apartments. Canvas Apartments is located within the Minneapolis Arts District and will include 23,184 square feet of production and commercial space on the ground floor.

New Point Family Apartments is a historic rehabilitation project for 18 family units in Salem, Massachusetts, for households experiencing or at risk of experiencing long-term homelessness. All units will be reserved for households with incomes at or below 30%, 50% and 60% of the area median income. The project will provide for the renovation of three buildings built in 1915 and 1920 within Salem’s historic The Point neighborhood. Historical elements of the buildings that will be preserved during the planned renovations include interior trim woodwork, replacement of windows and deck railings with aesthetically comparable products and recessing the brick infill that will replace the basement windows.
The properties in WNC Fund 54 will create approximately 1,700 jobs and the aggregate economic impact is expected to generate more than $190 million in local income tax and other government revenue.

PORTLAND, OR – Global real estate firm Lincoln Property Company celebrated the Grand Opening of The Sutton, a high-end waterfront apartment complex in Portland s North Pearl District with neighbors, local officials, and business leaders. Leasing activity is off to a robust start at the beautiful new 236-unit complex.
The Sutton received the Commercial Association of Brokers Multifamily Development of the Year award for its high-quality design and features, expansive views of the city, the Willamette River, and the Fremont Bridge, and proximity to the Pearl District—a vibrant neighborhood experiencing one of the highest rates of growth of any Portland area, nearly doubling in size in the past decade.
The Sutton is a 17-story residential tower located on the Willamette River in the North Pearl neighborhood. The building s front yard is on the Greenway Trail—which provides public access to the river and Portland s iconic trail system. As part of the project, Lincoln widened the Greenway Trail between the property and the river, giving pedestrians, cyclists, and skaters more space to enjoy, and agreed to help maintain and improve this section of the trail with new landscaping and site work. The Sutton also features space for a ground-floor restaurant with indoor/outdoor seating along the waterfront that will bring the community together.
As part of the opening ceremony, Patrick Gilligan, Executive Vice President with Lincoln, and Nick Gonzalves, Director with Bridge Investment Group, marked the property s official opening with a formal ribbon cutting. Andrew Hoan, President and CEO of the Portland Business Alliance, presented The Sutton with an official Proclamation. Many toured the property and explored the amenities, including hotel-quality guest suites that can be reserved for out-of-town visitors, a game room, multiple lounges, a coffee bar, a gourmet community kitchen, a pet spa, a bike storage and repair center, and a landscaped rooftop terrace with spectacular views of the Willamette River and Fremont Bridge.
The Sutton was a complex, multi-year development that required significant community engagement, collaboration, and support. This was a long time coming, said Gilligan. Despite a turbulent economy, COVID-19, and multiple rounds of revisions to secure approval—The Sutton team kept going. We are passionate about this project and so excited to see it finally coming to fruition.
Lincoln and The Sutton team are also excited to have been selected as the Multifamily Development of the Year by the Commercial Association of Brokers (CAB) in Oregon and Southwest Washington at their annual Night of Excellence in Commercial Real Estate ceremony earlier this year. The CAB awards gala was held on March 9, 2023, at the Portland Art Museum, where winning projects in various categories were honored.
Lincoln developed The Sutton with investor partner Bridge Investment Group. TVA, a Portland-based architecture and design firm, served as the lead Architect, with Andersen Construction as the General Contractor. Luxury lifestyle brand, Ink + Oro, handled the furnishings, while Portland s Carol Williamson + Associates oversaw the interior design.

NEWPORT NEWS, VA – Community Preservation Partners (CPP), a mission-driven affordable housing preservation developer, announced that it has closed on City Line Apartments. This marks CPP s third of similar building renovations in the state of Virginia.
Built in 1979, with its last renovation almost 20 years ago, the property will receive improvements in all 200 units, including new kitchen and bathroom appliances, new luxury vinyl plank (LVP) flooring and new HVAC units. The building will also undergo a complete roof replacement. Shared spaces will be renovated with a new computer room and community library. Expansive exterior renovations are planned, including the addition of a new playground, an outdoor fitness center, basketball court, BBQ area and community garden.
This development is vital to the Newport News area, which is lacking in affordable options for working class and Section 8 housing residents, said Anand Kannan, President at CPP. This purchase and renovation will extend the affordability of the property s 200 units for years to come.
With sustainability top of mind, the project will meet a Home Energy Rating System of 80 (HERS80 rating) after the renovation.
We believe that improving housing is the first step in transforming the lives of community members, said Seth Gellis, Senior Vice President at CPP. This is an existing tax credit community that will have a fresh 30-year affordability agreement on it due to this renovation. We are excited that City Line Apartments will continue to be rented to tenants who are at, or under, 50% of the area s median income.
The project s Land Use Restrictive Agreement (LURA) will be in place for 30 years. The Housing Assistance Payments (HAP) contract was set to expire in 2025, but with the renovation the project will earn a new 20-year HAP contract. The project is part of the Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) program. Permanent financing will be provided by Redstone and the equity investor is PNC Bank.
CPP s total development investment is expected to be approximately $57 million, with a purchase price of $30.1 million. Renovation costs are estimated at $55,000 per unit.
Construction is expected to last for 12 months and be completed in December 2023. CPP is working to ensure that impact on residents will be as minimal as possible. Paragon Construction is the General Contractor, with Ebersoldt + Associates serving as the architect.

CHARLOTTE, NC – Nationally recognized Crescent Communities celebrated the groundbreaking celebration for what will be Charlotte s most transformative master-planned development in over 20 years: The River District. The project will include more than 5,000 homes and apartments as well as hotels, retirement units, and 8 million square feet of commercial space. Spanning 1,400 acres including more than 500 acres of preserved land, The River District is nestled between the Catawba River and Charlotte Douglas International Airport and will bring a long-term wave of economic vitality to West Charlotte. At completion, the project is expected to generate over $5.6B of gross annual economic impact for the region and state.
The groundbreaking ceremony commemorated key construction milestones with representatives from Crescent Communities, the City of Charlotte and the State of North Carolina. This first series of milestones includes delivering major utility and roadway infrastructure for The River District s first mixed use development, Westrow. This area will feature a range of residential offerings including apartments, townhomes and single-family residential lots as well as small retail spaces, restaurants, event space, and office space, all with immediate proximity to trails, parks, an event lawn, and a two-acre working farm. Crescent s NOVEL brand will anchor Westrow with 514 market-rate apartments as well as 124 mixed-income units in partnership with Charlotte-based affordable housing developer Laurel Street Residential. Crescent Communities is proud to donate land to Laurel Street to achieve a diverse mix of housing and incomes and foster an inclusive community throughout The River District.
The River District will uniquely infuse energy into Charlotte s robust housing and lifestyle market, building on years of tremendous growth and demand for a truly mixed-use ecosystem that blends the built environment with natural environment, said Chase Kerley, Managing Director at Crescent Communities. The River District s location along the Catawba River, Charlotte s only major body of water, will provide urban amenities and public access to the riverfront that has not previously been available to Charlotte. The community s full spectrum of residential and commercial spaces and proximity to major thoroughfares and the Charlotte Douglas International Airport makes The River District an exceptional location for families and businesses to thrive. By offering an organic blend of urban life and proximity to nature, The River District will truly provide a lasting legacy for the region.
Crescent Communities is excited to celebrate this incredible milestone for The River District and the market-changing impact it will have on the greater Charlotte community, said Brendan Pierce, President of Commercial for Crescent Communities. The River District will show our commitment to creating a dynamic and sustainable community for future residents, office tenants, retail owners, and visitors alike. We believe in this project and our team is dedicated to ensuring it not just lives up to the vision, but also delivers what our city needs to continue to grow and evolve.
Underscoring this ongoing commitment to stewardship through environmental, community, wellness, and resiliency initiatives, Crescent Communities is developing an action plan aligned with the One Planet Living sustainability framework for The River District. This plan will set goals in support of equity, circularity, responsible transit, health, and a reduced carbon footprint. Developers around the world use the One Planet Living framework to inform sustainable development, but The River District represents the first community in the Southeast US to use this tool.
Participants in Wednesday s groundbreaking ceremony included partners from Crescent Communities as well as officials from the City of Charlotte, with remarks by Tracy Dodson, Assistant City Manager and Economic Development Director for the City of Charlotte, and Chris Chung, CEO of the Economic Development Partnership of North Carolina.
The River District will add to the character of Charlotte and the west side through a decade long public private partnership to deliver an intentionally designed, master planned development, said Tracy Dodson, Assistant City Manager, City of Charlotte. Our partnership with Crescent Communities will leverage our investment to contribute to City Council s renewed commitment to helping residents access affordable places to live, good jobs, and reliable transportation.
