The highly anticipated groundbreaking ceremony for the Water Street Townhomes project is set for Tuesday, December 17th at 2:30 PM, marking a significant milestone in the development of the area. Located at the intersection of Garro Street and Water Street, this initiative aims to enhance the community by introducing a mix of residential and commercial spaces. The project will feature 4 three-bedroom townhomes, 8 two-bedroom townhomes, and 2 one-bedroom flats, catering to a diverse range of potential renters. Additionally, the design includes dedicated commercial space, promoting local business opportunities and fostering a vibrant neighborhood atmosphere.
The development will be situated on a single parcel specifically designated for residential construction, complemented by an adjacent parcel allocated for a parking lot, ensuring convenience for residents and visitors alike. This careful planning reflects a commitment to creating a cohesive living environment that balances housing and accessibility. Mayor Listenberger, along with the project developer, Kevin Berger, will be present at the ceremony, underscoring the collaborative efforts between the city and private entities to revitalize the area while meeting the housing demands of the community. As the groundbreaking approaches, excitement builds within the community, and anticipation grows for the positive changes this project will bring.
