Atlanta-based developer buys land, says it will break ground in early 2019. Atlanta-based Catalyst Development Partners soon will break ground on a 332-unit luxury apartment development within the eTown community, east of Florida 9B and Interstate 295 in south Jacksonville, according to a news release. The apartments will be within the Village Center, south of eTown’s single-family neighborhoods. Catalyst, through CDP E-Town Owner LLC, bought the land from Eastland Timber LLC
A plan for the apartments shows a large pond. Other amenities will include a resortstyle swimming pool, fitness center, business center, dog wash area and dog park, grilling stations with fire pits and a walking trail.
An Atlanta developer submitted a permit request to develop Olea at Nocatee, a 175-unit active adult apartment community. The community is along Crosstown Drive on 7.2 acres divided by the Duval-St. Johns County border. Pollack Shores Real Estate Group LLC filed site plans with the St. Johns River Water Management District on Dec. 14 asking for a minor modification to the Nocatee master drainage permit. Plans show the apartments on the Duval side, comprising three three-story buildings with 55 units in building one, 54 in building two and 66 in building three. The leasing and amenity center is in St. Johns County. The community comprises 101 one-bedroom, 66 two-bedroom and eight three-bedroom units with parking spaces for golf carts. Documents refer to the project as “active adult,” usually age 55 and older. Officials with Pollack Shores did not return calls and emails requesting additional information. According to the company website, Pollack Shores, founded in 2006 by Steven Shores and Marc Pollack, invests in multifamily communities across the Southeast. The project engineering firm is England-Thims & Miller Inc. of Jacksonville.
