Flaherty & Collins has hired Urban Works of Minneapolis to design the project, which will likely take three years to build.
The project will be geared toward young professionals, mostly likely single with high disposable income, Crossin said.
The apartment sizes will range from a studio flat of 650 square feet to a two bedroom/two bathroom apartment up to 1,200 square feet.
Rents will be from $815 for the studio flat to $1,275 or $1,400 on the two bedroom/two bathroom apartment configurations.
The three-bedroom townhomes with two-car, tuck-under garages are expected to be 1,838 square feet and rent for $1,800.
Each unit will feature nine-foot ceilings, 42-inch cabinets, granite counter tops, track and pendant lighting, brushed nickel hardware, Roman soaking tubs in the bathrooms, ceramic tile, stainless steel or black appliances, Berber carpet, some wood flooring, oversized windows and ceiling fans in the bedrooms and the living room.
The complex’s amenities include a fitness room with aerobic and weight machines, free weights and flat screen television.
The building will also have a 200 square-foot theater as well as a gathering room, which is designed like a living room for people to congregate, Crossin said.
The room can be used for parties or just for visiting, wine tastings, football gatherings and holiday parties, he said.
It will feature flat screen televisions, free WiFi in all common areas, a kitchen and billiards, according to Crossin.
The Residence will also have a courtyard with a outdoor resort-style swimming pool for summer recreation, a fire pit and gathering areas with benches and tables for year-round activities.
Custom quality, for our unique opportunity. However -
Compare the sidebar description, this FC brochure page screenshot, and it's claimed upscale ambiance; deja vu all over again, as Yogi Berra said:
I could be wrong seeing a similarity of what Sakry reported for the Town Center rentals, to this "Cumberland Pointe" thing's language:
When completed in July 2008, it will have 208 units. The luxury apartment homes will feature 52 one-bedroom, one-bath units; 132 two-bedroom, two-bath units, and 24 three-bedroom, two-bath units.
All of the apartment homes will have nine-foot ceilings, washer/dryer connections, patios and balconies, and high-speed Internet. The apartment community will also feature a resort-style pool, clubhouse, premier fitness club, business center , tanning salon, private cinema, and a great room with a gourmet kitchen, coffee bar and billiards.
I guess we may have Ramsey council members saying that Cumberland Pointe will be "of a quality unsurpassed in the state" of Ohio, Indiana, North Carolina --- in whatever state it is in which this Nobelsville town and its Cumberland Pointe housing project is sited.
"Of a quality unsurpassed in the state," indeed.
Effusiveness has its place, just not around me.
