Developer Plans Single-Family Homes, Townhomes, Apartments, Retail On 7.5 Acres At South Broad Street

  • Thursday, May 5, 2016

A developer is planning single-family homes, apartments, townhomes and retail on a 7.5-acre South Broad Street site.

The development by South Broad LLC and DEW LLC is located within several blocks between South Broad Street, W. 26th Street, Long Street and W. 27th Street.

It would include a 3-story U-shaped apartment building with ground floor retail at the north end of the block between South Broad, Cowart Street, and W. 26th Street. Also within that block is a proposed 2-story mixed-use building fronting South Broad and four townhomes fronting Cowart Street. The rest of the proposed development on Cowart Street, Williams Street, and Long Street includes 34 lots for single-family homes.

The plan calls for one existing building on Broad Street to remain.

The Regional Planning Agency staff is recommending approval for most of the rezoning request and denial for a C-3 business zone.

It comes before the Planning Commission on Monday at 1 p.m. at the County Courthouse.
