DALLAS, TX – Leading national multifamily real estate developer Wood Partners announced the grand opening of its newest high-end residential community, Alta at The Farm, situated in the Dallas region.
Alta at The Farm is located in the heart of The Farm, a 135-acre mixed-use development in the prominent Dallas suburb of Allen, and adjacent to The HUB, a multifaceted outdoor entertainment and retail venue. Alta at The Farm is also within walking distance of The Farm’s Central District, which includes High 5 Entertainment and Chicken and Pickle, both of which will start construction this month. With FarmWorks One, a 102,000-sqaure-foot Class A office building, also under construction just two blocks away, The Farm will include a dynamic blend of office spaces, retail boutiques, entertainment venues, and residential offerings. Some standout features of The Farm include a sprawling 16-acre greenbelt and expansive open spaces that stretch the entire length of the development, a picturesque 2.5-acre lake and a diverse selection of dining options, multiple inviting pocket parks, and a 2.5-mile network of versatile multi-use trails seamlessly connecting to the broader Allen trail system.
“We’re thrilled to expand our presence in the Dallas/Fort Worth region and extend a warm welcome to residents at Alta at The Farm,” said Ryan Miller, Managing Director at Wood Partners. “With nearby parks, hiking and biking trails, a serene lake, and an array of shopping and dining opportunities, residents at Alta at The Farm will have the privilege of enjoying the ultimate live-work-play lifestyle.”
“From the beginning, we designed The Farm in Allen to be a premier place to live, work, and play. Serving Allen and the surrounding areas, the grand opening of Alta at The Farm officially takes us another step closer to fulfilling that vision,” said Bruce Heller, President of JaRyCo and Developer of The Farm. “It has been a pleasure working with Woods Partners to bring this high quality urban residential project to The Farm.”
Alta at The Farm offers 325 apartment homes offering residents a range of choices among studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom floorplan layouts. Each apartment comes equipped with premium finishes, including luxurious kitchens featuring granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, high-end fixtures, and chic tile backsplashes. Furthermore, these homes will include state-of-the-art technology, keyless entry systems, wood plank flooring, and the added convenience of in-home washer and dryer sets.
Throughout the community, residents have access to an impressive array of amenities you won’t find in other Allenapartments in Texas, including a resort-style pool with tanning ledges, a second courtyard with grilling areas and fire pits, a community clubhouse featuring a state-of-the-art fitness facility, private fitness micro-studios, and a Sky Lounge deck overlooking West Lake Park and The HUB.

Mill Creek Breaks Ground on 353-Unit Second Phase of Modera Coral Springs Apartment Community in Emerging South Florida Locale

CORAL SPRINGS, FL – 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 Coral Springs Phase II, a contemporary mixed-use apartment community in the heart of Coral Springs.
The community, which will feature 353 homes and 32,280 square feet of retail space, joins the 351-home original phase that started welcoming its first residents in July. The communities are the key residential component of the Cornerstone at Downtown Coral Springs development, which is adding a variety of new living, dining, retail and entertainment options to the city’s busiest corner. Coral Springs Phase I and II will be built to, and are pursuing, an NGBS Silver Certification. First go-ins at Phase II are anticipated for fall 2025.
“When Phase II is complete, local renters will have access to more than 700 apartment homes and approximately 40,000 square feet of retail space,” said Andrea Rowe, senior managing director of development in South Florida for Mill Creek Residential. “We believe these offerings will add tremendous value to the epicenter of the city, and we’re thrilled to be part of the epic Cornerstone at Downtown Coral Springs development. With Phase II, we are not aiming to duplicate the original phase, but to offer a distinct set of amenities and a unique-but-similarly-refined living experience.”
Situated at 3310 University Drive, the second phase of Modera Coral Springs is positioned directly east of Coral Springs’new City Hall building, just north of the recently completed Downtown ArtWalk and within a small drive of the Sawgrass Expressway, which links to Florida’s Turnpike and provides connectivity to the greater South Florida area. Firmly amidst the area’s most prominent entertainment and employment centers, the community also offers near-direct access to The Walk of Coral Springs, Promenade at Coconut Creek, Tradewinds Park and many additional attractions.
The additional phase will offer one-, two-, and three-bedroom homes with select den layouts and an average size of 1,021 square feet. A distinct set of community amenities at Phase II will include three elevated courtyards with manicured landscaping, a resort-style swimming pool in one of the courtyards, an elegant multipurpose clubhouse overlooking the pool deck, outdoor barbecue stations, museum-inspired lobby and mailroom, coworking spaces and a club-quality fitness facility.
Home interiors will be similar to those of the original phase, including nine-foot ceilings, wood plank-style flooring, stainless steel appliances, quartz countertops, tile backsplashes, programmable thermostats, central heating and air, walk-in closets, in-home washers and dryers and private patios or balconies. Bathrooms will include tile shower surrounds, soaking tubs, double vanities and linen closets.

Vista Residential and Batson-Cook Complete Disposition of 300-Unit Sweetwater Vista Apartment Community in Atlanta Submarket

DOUGLASVILLE, GA – Vista Residential Partners and Batson-Cook Development Company have completed the sale of a 300-unit garden apartment community known as Sweetwater Vista Apartments.
Sweetwater Vista Apartments was the first new multifamily development delivered to Douglas County in over a decade. Spacious floor plans, top-of-the-line amenities, and a bucolic atmosphere bordering the 2,500-acre Sweetwater Creek State Park were among the numerous reasons why the community stood out from its competitors.
In addition, residents can delight in a large clubhouse, resort style pool, spacious dog park, and open green spaces throughout the property. This community was a part of Vista’s corporate commitment to provide high-quality housing with attainable rents to a burgeoning submarket. Located on Riverside Parkway, Sweetwater Vista provides convenient access to both I-20 and the I-285 corridor, along with being 15 miles from Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport and 12 miles from Midtown Atlanta.
“Sweetwater Vista proved to be another example of Vista’s strong ability to identify underserved housing markets,” said Michael Neyhart, Chief Investment Officer of Vista. “The demand proved to be even stronger than we had forecasted, and the submarket continues to see robust investment activity in both commercial and residential developments.”
Synovus Bank provided construction financing for the project. A joint venture among BCDC and Blue Vista Asset Management LLC., Eduardo de Guardiola’s Family Office, (principal and founder of Vista), provided the equity.
“BCDC aims to partner with the best development teams in the country, and that was the case with Vista Residential Partners, who had the vision and delivered an outstanding community,” said Litt Glover, President and CEO, BCDC. “Sweetwater Vista’s performance, combined with its exceptional amenities and prime location, made an ideal opportunity for investors seeking to expand their portfolio. We congratulate the new Owner on its acquisition.”
