Flats170 Apartments Scheduled for Summer Opening
The new complex at the former Nevamar site has been featured on a blog and also has a Facebook page.
After months of demolition and moving dirt, the developers of the Flats170 at Academy Yard apartments are entering the beginning of the end.
Construction has started at the complex at the former Nevamar site on Telegraph Road, and the apartments were recently featured on a blog by the residential developer, Bozzuto Group.
Flats170 also has a Facebook page, where it's been promoting events in the area. The page has just three "likes" so far, but I have to assume they'll get more as construction becomes more visible.
Currently, anyone driving by the site can see some framework being raised for the first batch of 369 apartments.
On a blog on Bozzuto's official webpage, they said that the apartments are scheduled to open in the summer of 2013. The company has already began touting some of the amenities that will be offered to residents.
"With an overwhelming amount of amenities and entertainment available, residents may have little reason to leave this luxurious, urban apartment community," Bozzuto said.
There will be a pool, fitness room, clubhouse with billiards, and theater room.

Any word on what they plan to do with the substation that's still on site?

For the time being, it will remain in place. The new apartments are on the north side of the site. The substation is closer to the south end, which is slated for other development sometime in the future.

So the eventual intent is to remove it. Just wasn't sure since all the demo on the building is now down.

To be honest, I am not sure what the plan is there. But I'll check with the developer. Thanks for your interest.

They should have named this "The Lodge at Seven Oaks - West"

Tim,
Any idea if this will have future impact on the wooded area north of Breitwert Ave? There's some woods there short of the powerline that I imagine a developer would love to get their hands on and throw a couple houses in.

I believe that's all considered wetlands. No plans to build there, as far as I know.
