Mill Creek Breaks Ground on 270-Unit Modera South Shore Marshfield Garden-Style Apartment Community in Seaside-Town Locale

MARSHFIELD, MA – Mill Creek Residential, a leading developer, owner-operator and investment manager specializing in premier rental housing across the U.S., announced it has broken ground on Modera South Shore Marshfield, a contemporary garden-style community boasting a charming seaside-town locale.
The community, which will feature 270 apartment homes, is located approximately midway between Boston and Cape Cod and within a quick commute of Marshfield’s various beaches. First go-ins are anticipated for fall 2025.
“Marshfield features a prime coastal locale but a small inventory of Class A living options,” said Doug Arsham, senior managing director of development in Boston for Mill Creek Residential. “We’re keen to help address that demand and offer a product largely unique to the market. With an upgraded clubhouse, elevator access, spacious layouts and lofts in select units, we believe Modera South Shore Marshfield will quickly ascend to a best-in-class living option in the neighborhood.”
Located just south of Route 139 at 70 Commerce Way, Modera South Shore Marshfield features direct access to Route 3—which serves as the gateway to Boston to the north and Cape Cod to the south. Residents will also have access to the Greenbush MBTA commuter rail station in nearby Scituate, commuter boats in Hingham and Hull and multiple commuter bus options.
The community will sit within a 12-minute drive of Marshfield’s five beaches and within 15 minutes of the acclaimed Derby Street Shoppes, which feature a vast and eclectic array of restaurants and retailers. Additionally, a Roche Bros. supermarket is located less than a mile from the community along with several nearby breweries and dining options.
“Modera South Shore Marshfield will offer a refined coastal living experience with commuter-friendly access for those who work in the city or regularly travel up and down the coast,” said Anand Boscha, vice president of development in Boston for Mill Creek Residential. “We believe the spacious home sizes, thoughtful architectural design and state-of-the-art in-home features will be exclusive in the market and will provide an attractive option to discerning renters.”
Modera South Shore Marshfield will feature one-, two- and three-bedroom homes with a generous average size of 1,129 square feet. The community will feature various den, loft and townhome options, and homes will have private patios or balconies. Community amenities will include a resort-style swimming pool, state-of-the-art resident clubhouse, game room, grilling area, fire pit, coworking space, private workstations, coffee bar, dedicated dog run and a club-quality fitness center featuring cardio equipment and a yoga/Pilates studio. Residents will also have access to controlled-access garage parking, EV charging stations and additional storage options.
Home interiors will feature nine-foot ceilings, stainless steel appliances, wood plank-style flooring, quartz countertops, tile backsplashes, soft-close cabinets, moveable kitchen islands, smart thermostats, controlled guest-access technology, walk-in closets and in-home washers and dryers. Bathrooms will include double vanities, tile shower surrounds and linen closets. Modera South Shore Marshfield will be built to, and is pursuing, an NGBS Silver Certification.

Lincoln Avenue Communities Breaks Ground on 300-Unit 52 at Park Affordable Housing Community in Fast Growing Orlando Market

ORLANDO, FL – Lincoln Avenue Communities (LAC), a mission-driven acquirer and developer of affordable housing, broke ground on the future site of 52 at Park during a ceremony with LAC leaders, local lawmakers and partners. 52 at Park will provide 300 affordable housing units to individuals and families in Orange County earning no more than 60% of the Area Median Income.
“Lincoln Avenue Communities is proud to grow our portfolio of affordable housing developments in Florida,” said Jordan Richter, LAC vice president and regional project partner. “Once completed, 52 at Park will provide hundreds of high-quality, affordable homes in one of the state’s fastest-growing metropolitan areas.”
The property will include eight residential buildings, with all units expected to be completed by the end of 2025.
“The City of Orlando remains committed to ensuring that everyone who wants to call Orlando home has access to quality housing that is safe and affordable,” said Orlando Mayor Buddy Dyer. “Through the power of partnership by working alongside Lincoln Avenue Communities, we look forward to welcoming the addition of 300 new affordable apartments and continue to leverage funding and offer incentives to make it simpler for developers to build affordable housing in Orlando.”
52 at Park will offer amenities including a fitness center, pool, clubhouse, central laundry and a playground. The property will also include a sprawling solar installation that will offset 100% of the community’s electricity usage, making it one of the first affordable housing communities in Florida to provide full solar offsetting.
“LAC is committed to ensuring the long-term sustainability and resiliency of our developments,” said Cricket Cleary, LAC director of development. “52 at Park represents a major step toward a new generation of high-quality sustainable housing in Florida, and throughout the country.”
The project was financed through an issuance of tax-exempt bonds from the Orange County Housing Finance Authority; a Low-Income Housing Tax Credit equity investment from Freddie Mac, syndicated by Berkadia; a Construction Inflation Response Viability Funding loan from the Florida Housing Financing Corporation; construction and permanent loans from Deutsche Bank, serviced by Berkadia; and solar energy credit equity.

Oak Row Equities Breaks Ground on 2600 Biscayne Boulevard Luxury Mixed-Use Tower in Miami’s Desirable Edgewater Submarket

MIAMI, FL – Oak Row Equities, a vertically-integrated private equity and real estate development company with over $1.6 Billion of development in South Florida, announced the official groundbreaking of 2600 Biscayne Boulevard, a transformative Class AAA multifamily and office tower in the rapidly-maturing Edgewater neighborhood of Miami. Coastal Construction Group, one of the largest general contractors in the Southeast, is the general contractor.
Globally-renowned architecture firm Arquitectonica is responsible for the design of the luxurious 41-tale building, which will be home to an original public art piece by acclaimed artist Derrick Adams. Vida, a Portland-based full service interior design and interior architecture firm, is designing the interiors. The commencement of construction follows the pre-leasing of 50% of the commercial space, and the closing of a $181M loan from Bank OZK – one of the largest multifamily construction loans to close in South Florida this year.
We are thrilled to be breaking ground at 2600 Biscayne. We are focused on delivering the highest quality multi-family and office product to the Edgewater submarket, said Erik Rutter, Managing Partner at Oak Row Equities. We believe by breaking ground we will deliver into a supply-constrained market and be well-positioned as the highest quality asset in Miami-Dade County.
2600 Biscayne comprises an entire city block and is conveniently located one block from the plotted Northeast Corridor rail stop. The tower features 187,000 square feet of prime office and retail space and 399 luxurious studio to three-bedroom (plus den) rental residences. With exceptional design, ample private outdoor space, modern finishes, stunning views, and state-of-the-art amenities, these residences will rival new condo construction homes. An elaborate mural will be showed on the western part of the facade visible from multiple neighborhoods by celebrated artist Derrick Adams.
“2600 Biscayne will dramatically enhance the caliber of multifamily and office space in Edgewater and really make a new upper tier for these asset classes in South Florida,” says David Weitz, Managing Partner at Oak Row Equities. We are thrilled to be breaking ground on this exciting new project, and are proud to be working with such sophisticated financial institutions who are invested alongside us in South Florida s bright future.
“Coastal Construction Group is honored to join Oak Row Equities in breaking ground on 2600 Biscayne Boulevard, said Patrick Erin Murphy, Executive Vice President of Coastal Construction Group. We are excited to contribute to the transformation of the Edgewater neighborhood with esteemed partners and look forward to playing a part in delivering this building.
The residential part of the tower will start 135 feet above the ground, ideal for residents looking for the quintessential Miami view. Multiple levels of residential amenities include a pet spa, private lounge, yoga studio, and top-of-the-line fitness center. A wraparound 12th-floor amenity deck will have a lap pool, cold plunge, hot tub, well-appointed cabanas, and BBQ grills. The tower s 41st floor will feature a coworking lounge and rooftop deck with some of the best views in Miami.
Residents will delight in a seamless arrival experience via a dedicated residential porte-cochére with lush, covered waiting areas for ride shares. 2600 Biscayne will have EV charging stations and over 600 parking spaces for added convenience.
2600 Biscayne will be Gold Certified National Green Building Standard. The tower s offices are nearly 50% pre-leased and will be located on the first ten floors within a sculptural pyramid-like structure. Office tenants will have access to touchless entry points and elevators to easily divisible floor plates with 14 ceilings. There will be floor-to-ceiling glass throughout the spaces, private tenant balconies, and a wide range of indoor and outdoor wellness-focused amenities.
Outdoor amenities exclusive for the office tenants include a landscaped rooftop terrace, exclusive padel court, open-air seating, covered picnic areas, an outdoor wellness and yoga deck, and more. Inside, there is a dedicated business lounge, private meeting areas, conference rooms, and an entertainment room with a golf simulator.
Vehicular arrival for office tenants will be via a private porte-cochére and a designated lobby. Dedicated valet and tenant parking will be available along with 24/7 security and access.
Edgewater offers lifestyle amenities such as the lush eight-acre Margaret Pace Park, and robust retail and culinary options. Wynwood, Midtown, and the Design District are moments away. Whole Foods and a Northeast Corridor rail station will be within blocks upon completion. Miami International Airport, I-95, Miami Beach, and Brickell are easily accessible from Edgewater.
