JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- LandSouth Construction, a
Jacksonville, Fla. based general contractor specializing in multifamily and
senior housing, has begun construction on UPtown Delray, a $26 million mixed-use
apartment community in Delray Beach, Fla.
“This contemporary urban project has two
buildings connected by a pedestrian bridge,” said Joe Passkiewicz, vice
president of operations for LandSouth Construction. “One building will be
apartments over a parking structure. The other is mixed-use with retail and office
space as well as apartments. The project
is a structural concrete building with extensive use of glass and metal accents
with private balconies and terraces.”
The
development will consist of 146 residences with the total development
comprising over 338,000 square feet. UPtown Delray is expected to be completed
by September 2016.
The developer
is NCC Development Group
of Delray Beach, Fla. and Monogram Residential of Plano, Texas. Slattery and
Associates, a full-service
planning and architectural design firm founded in 1981 and based in Boca Raton,
is designing the community.
"We
are pleased to begin UPtown Delray and partner again with New Century Companies
and Monogram Residential. Downtown Delray Beach has become a growing source of
pride for the city and its citizens. This upscale project will inspire people
to live, work and play in a comfortable urban neighborhood setting,” noted said
James Pyle, President and CEO of LandSouth.

Construction is currently working on projects throughout the Southeast
including apartments in Jacksonville, Oviedo, Sanford and Orlando Fla.,
Collegedale, Tenn. and senior housing in Bonita Springs, Fla. In its 16 year
history, LandSouth Construction has completed more than 10,000 multifamily
units, including apartments, senior living, condominiums, and townhomes.
When
completed, UPtown Delray amenities will include a third floor pool and amenity deck
including a clubroom that opens to a glamorous outdoor entertaining area
including refreshment seating, grilling areas, a water wall fountain, tropical
gardens and private terraces. Other project
amenities include a gym, gaming room, coffee bar, cyber café, conference meeting
room, retail and gated parking.
The community
will feature studio, one and two bedroom, two-bath apartment homes including
some lofts. Interior elements will include sleek, modern appointments, wood
cabinetry, granite tops, and stainless steel appliances.

is located at the heart of the beach community’s growing business district at
the corner of Federal Highway and S.E. 2nd Street, two blocks south of Atlantic
Ave. Residents will be within walking distance to shopping, restaurants and
