DURHAM, NC – Wood Partners, a national leader in multi-family real estate development, announced the groundbreaking of its newest luxury residential community – Alta Davis – in Durham, North Carolina. Construction is now underway, and the community is scheduled to open in late 2021.
Alta Davis is located minutes away from Research Triangle Park (RTP), the largest research park in the United States. Residents will have easy access to more than 250 businesses and 50,000 technology and life sciences jobs. The site is also in close proximity to the Imperial Center Business Park and Perimeter Park, two other employment hubs that contribute approximately 14,000 additional jobs to the area.
“We are excited about the opportunity to bring a residential community of the highest quality into this submarket, accommodating the growing number of new jobs in the region,” said Wood Partners Managing Director Caitlin Shelby. “We know this community will provide residents with easy access to work while giving them a comfortable neighborhood feel when they come home.”
Aside from the booming job market, Durham is famously home to Duke University, itself a major employment and research hub. Duke recently announced a $100 million investment in RTP for an expansion of their School of Medicine, in addition to several private sector investments in the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic.
More than just a college town, the American Tobacco Campus and a contemporary brewery scene add to Durham’s cultural side, while nearby local parks, including Sarah P. Duke Gardens and Eno River State Park, offer residents the chance to easily explore the outdoors.
Easily accessible transportation nearby includes Interstates 40, 540 and NC-147, which provide unparalleled access throughout the Triangle region. Each highway is accessible within a few minutes from the new community.
Alta Davis will offer a conveniently located community with large apartments and abundant amenities. Once complete, Alta Davis will include 403 units across seven buildings, each four stories. All units will be elevator-served and will include high-quality finishes and amenities such as quartz counters, tile backsplash and hardwood-style flooring. On-site amenities include a coffee bar, game room, high-tech fitness center, and saltwater swimming pool in addition to abundant co-working space.
