Mill Creek Residential, a leading developer and operator specializing in premier rental communities across the U.S., today announced the start of preleasing at Modera River Trail, a contemporary mixed-use apartment community located in the thriving Seattle suburb of Redmond. 

The community, which features 233 apartment homes and 4,700 square feet of ground-floor retail, sits approximately 15 miles northeast of Downtown Seattle and will provide residents with prime access to popular Marymoor Park and Lake Sammamish. Built with a modern industrial architectural theme, Modera River Trail will also offer high-quality home finishes, a unique array of common-area attractions and panoramic views of the Puget Sound region. Move-ins will begin in late January.

“Redmond has fast become one of the most desirable areas in the Seattle metro, and we are excited to commence preleasing for Modera River Trail,” said Steve Yoon, managing director of development in Seattle for Mill Creek Residential. “We believe the community will be a unique offering in the area and will serve as the perfect destination for residents to enjoy a work-life balance with a variety of neighborhood attractions within reach. We look forward to offering a best-in-class living experience for our residents.”

Situated at 15881 NE 85th Street and a short drive north of Redmond Town Center and Marymoor Park, the community is located in a vibrant, emerging downtown area possessing a superb Walk Score of 88 and Bike Score of 91. An abundance of retail, dining and entertainment options are contained within the Redmond Town Center, which is also home to three hotels, several healthcare outlets and a variety of fitness centers. Residents are also within a short walk of the Redmond Transit Center and within close proximity of State Route 520, which connects with Interstates 495 and 5, the gateways to the greater Seattle area and its thriving tech and healthcare employment centers.  

Modera River Trail offers studio, one- and two-bedroom homes with loft and den layouts available. Community amenities include a courtyard with barbecue areas, a sixth-floor clubroom with full kitchen, sky lounge with conference room and an expansive rooftop deck. Additionally, a hotel-inspired, two-story lobby includes a self-playing piano, gas fireplace, coffee bar and grand staircase. 

Residents will also have access to a HIIT-inspired fitness center with yoga room, pet wash and pet spa, karaoke/movie room, game room with poker and a large-screen TV, rentable storage spaces and Amazon HUB lockers with a large package overflow room.

Apartment interiors at the keyless-access community are equipped with large windows for an abundance of natural light, wood-plank vinyl flooring, Energy Star stainless-steel appliances, gas ranges, quartz countertops, tile backsplashes, two-tone custom cabinetry, in-home washers and dryers, tile shower surrounds and edge-lit bathroom mirrors. Select homes include moveable kitchen islands, custom closets, breakfast bars and green-space views. Residents will also have controlled-access parking and guest technology, electric vehicle charging stations and dedicated bike storage. 

Mill Creek Residential, a leading developer and operator specializing in premier rental communities across the U.S., today announced the groundbreaking of Modera EaDo, a luxury apartment community just east of Austin’s “Second Downtown” – The Domain – in an area the company is dubbing East Domain.

“The area surrounding The Domain is transitioning from largely industrial properties to a more pedestrian-friendly, mixed-use environment consistent with the City of Austin’s plan for the area and we wholeheartedly buy into that vision,” said Bart Schaetter, managing director of development in Austin for Mill Creek Residential. “This pocket east of The Domain – which we are calling EaDo – will benefit from the success of The Domain proper similarly to how neighborhoods adjacent to vibrant downtowns in other metro areas benefit.”

The wrap-style community, which will offer 377 apartment homes, is strategically located near a host of vibrant dining, retail and entertainment options and within a short commute of many of Austin’s well-known employers. First move-ins are anticipated for summer 2023. 

“Modera EaDo will put residents within close proximity of essentially everything they might need, from nightlife options, craft breweries and Austin FC to the area’s blue-chip tech employers,” Schaetter said. “This proximity, coupled with the community’s refined amenity package and contemporary home finishes, will result in a top-of-market living option for discerning renters. We’re eager to welcome our first residents.”

Located at 11604 Stonehollow Drive, Modera EaDo is situated in an area of north Austin that has become a hotbed for retailers and employers. Prominent employers in the area include IBM, Indeed, Amazon, Facebook and Charles Schwab, which features a 50-acre campus immediately adjacent to the community. Modera EaDo also sits just east of The Broadmoor, a mixed-use redevelopment of IBM’s 66-acre campus. The community is also within a quarter-mile of the Broadmoor’s proposed MetroRail Red Line station, connecting the community with Leander to the north and downtown Austin to the south. Those working from home will benefit from the community’s signature co-working amenity space, mWorks. 

Modera EaDo will offer studio, one- and two-bedroom homes with select homes featuring private yards along an urban trail. Apartment interiors will be delivered with a deluxe array of features across two sophisticated finish schemes. Select homes will include private patios or balconies, linen closets, double-vanities, powder baths and walk-in showers.

Community amenities will include a resident club with a gaming area, indoor/outdoor social kitchen and music room, community-wide WiFi, resort-style pool with water features and tanning ledge, poolside cabana, Zen courtyard, outdoor kitchen with gas grills and a 24-hour club-quality fitness center with individual fitness pods. The community will also feature a dedicated bark park with connecting pet spa.

Modera EaDo marks Mill Creek’s third ground-up development in Austin. It has four actively leasing communities in the market, including nearby Modera Domain (2618 Kramer Lane), which began leasing in 2021. 

Mill Creek Residential, a leading developer and operator specializing in premier rental communities across the U.S., today announced the start of preleasing at Modera Katy Trail, a high-rise apartment community in the vibrant Uptown neighborhood of Dallas.

The 14-story smart-home-equipped community, which features 217 contemporary apartment homes, is situated at the intersection of McKinney Avenue and the northern terminus of the popular Katy Trail, overlooking historic Highland Park. The highly visible location, just west of the North Central Expressway behind the iconic Steinway Hall, puts future residents at the northern trailhead for the Katy Trail and within walkable proximity of key dining, entertainment and employment options in the lively area. Move-ins will begin in January. 

“Modera Katy Trail will offer a little bit of everything in a location that’s attractive both to outdoor enthusiasts and those craving an elevated living experience,” said Kevin Hickman, vice president of development of North Texas for Mill Creek Residential. “With a prime location just removed from the exorbitant price tags of central Highland Park, we believe Modera Katy Trail will be a top-of-market option for area residents who choose the convenience of upscale rental housing. We look forward to welcoming our first residents and offering a vintage-inspired, amenity-rich experience.” 

Located at 5350 McKinney Avenue, Modera Katy Trail sits just south of Beverly Drive and Airline Road, two landmark streets in Highland Park and a half-mile south of Mockingbird Station, a major mixed-use center for dining, shopping, employment, entertainment and fitness that is also a major transfer point for DART, the Dallas light-rail system. Mockingbird Station can be easily accessed via the Katy Trail extension and from the new Mockingbird pedestrian and cycling bridge. The commuter-friendly community also offers prime connectivity to nearby Glencoe Park in Dallas’s M Streets neighborhood and Abbott Park in Highland Park – both less than two minutes run or ride from Modera Katy Trail.

In addition to the 3.5-mile Katy Trail, neighborhood attractions include the upscale eateries, shopping and expanding employment center of the Knox District, the Angelika Theater, Meadows Museum, academic amenities and athletic venues of Southern Methodist University, Highland Park Village shopping, Granada Theater, Greenville Avenue restaurants and the American Airlines Center (home to the NBA’s Dallas Mavericks and NHL’s Dallas Stars) in Victory Park just down the Trail.

Modera Katy Trail is built with classic-yet-sophisticated architectural style and offers studio, one-, two- and three-bedroom homes with penthouses and townhome layouts available. Community amenities include a landscaped rooftop pool deck facing Downtown Dallas, outdoor kitchen area, piano lounge, a fifth-floor amenity level with a club-quality fitness center and resident clubhouse. Additional common-area attractions include multiple remote working areas, conference room, dedicated dog run, pet spa, trailside pet owners lounge and a fireside porch across from the trailhead.

The penthouse level will feature a canopy club with private dining, wine lounge with bottle storage, whiskey bar and treetop views of Highland Park. Residents will also have access to digital package lockers, loaner bikes, dedicated bike storage and a hotel-inspired lobby designed for social events and co-working spaces. 

Apartment interiors at the controlled-access community include 10-foot ceilings, herringbone floors, 42-inch custom cabinetry, marble countertops and backsplashes, pendant lighting, gold designer fixtures, stainless steel Energy Star appliances, walk-in closets, programmable thermostats and private patios or balconies. Bathrooms in select homes will include edge-lit cosmetic mirrors, glass walk-in showers, double vanities and linen closets. 

Modera Katy Trail adds to Mill Creek’s growing presence in the Dallas market, which also includes completed development communities Modera Dallas Midtown, Modera Hall Street, Modera Howell, Modera Near the Galleria and Modera Turtle Creek.

Mill Creek Residential, a leading developer and operator specializing in premier rental communities across the U.S., today announced the additions of several retailers at Modera Prominence, a luxury mixed-use apartment community located in Atlanta’s vibrant Buckhead neighborhood about a mile west of Lenox Square. 

Zakia, CT Reforma and Mendocino Farms are among the confirmed restaurants, along with popular ice cream shop The Yard Milkshake Bar. One additional retailer—a top-of-market local Thai restaurant—has also been confirmed, although an official announcement will come at a later time. 

Two retail spaces remain available at the five-story community, which features 318 contemporary apartment homes and an adjoining office building spanning 433,000 square feet. One is a 1,700-square-foot corner lot for a fast-casual restaurant, while the other is in the center of the open plaza. The 800-square-foot, all-glass space is referred to as the “jewel box” of the retail offerings. 

“The corner lot sits on one of the busiest corners of Buckhead and offers fantastic visibility with 40,000 vehicles passing per day,” said Amy Fingerhut, first vice president of CBRE and broker for Mill Creek. “It also offers a unique patio that is shielded from traffic. The center space will make an amazing location for an outlet that operates as a café by day and wine bar by night.”

Zakia is a concept restaurant by Chef Ian Winslade alongside operators Jonathan and Ryan Akly, who co-created and operate the popular Mission + Market restaurant, which sits about one mile northeast of Modera Prominence in North Buckhead. Zakia, which will open in Feb. 2022, will be designed by Tony Akly of Restaurants Consulting Group, Inc. and feature modern Lebanese cuisine specializing in shareable mezze and charcoal grilled meats and seafood.   

“We’re excited to join the retail landscape at Modera Prominence, which boasts one of the most desirable locations in the city,” Zakia co-owner Jonathan Akly said. “Fans of Mission + Market won’t have to travel far to visit our new concept, and we look forward to delivering a top-tier dining experience in a beautifully designed atmosphere.” 

CT Reforma is a contemporary Mexican cantina and restaurant that will serve as the fourth restaurant under the CTTACOS umbrella. That includes two locations, CT Taqueria and CT Al Pastor, in nearby Alpharetta. The Modera Prominence location, which will provide more of an upscale experience, is slated to open in February. 

“We’re eager to expand to Buckhead and further refine the CTTACOS experience with CT Reforma,” said Rafael Jaime, president of CT Taqueria. “This location will bring contemporary world flavors into a beautiful Mexican presentation, which we believe will be a tremendous fit for Modera Prominence and complement the unique offerings of Zakia.”

Mendocino Farms features chef-driven sandwiches, salads and more, offering unique twists on classics and globally-inspired flavor combinations. The Modera Prominence location, which is projected to open in fall 2022, will mark the first outside of the California and Texas markets for the fast casual establishment and will bring an estimated 50 to 60 jobs to the area. 

“As a restaurant rooted in crafting unexpected flavor combinations that wow, we’ve always been drawn to and inspired by Atlanta’s rich, diverse culinary and cultural legacy,” said Kevin Miles, chief executive officer for Mendocino Farms. “Expanding our presence beyond California and Texas marks an exciting point in our history, and we’re thrilled to call Atlanta – and specifically Modera Prominence in the heart of Buckhead — our new home. We look forward to adding our unique ‘eat happy’ experience to the community’s vibrant dining scene.” 

The Yard Milkshake Bar, which was founded in 2017, will be adding a second Atlanta location to complement its Downtown shop. The company gained fame on the TV show “Shark Tank” in 2019 and has since expanded to 10 states. The Modera Prominence location is projected to open sometime in the first quarter of 2022. 

“We received a fantastic welcome to Atlanta with our Downtown location, and we’re absolutely thrilled about expanding to Buckhead and Modera Prominence,” said franchisee Cheri Johnson. “The timing is perfect, as the area is one of the most sought-after locales in the city and is truly perfect for our store.”

Located at 3699 Lenox Road NE, Modera Prominence began leasing in 2020. The community offers a variety of deluxe amenities, including a sixth-floor sky lounge, a club-quality fitness center and ample co-working space. Homes are delivered with upgraded features, including modern kitchens with stainless steel appliances, 42-inch custom cabinetry and Caesarstone countertops. A second phase of the community, which will feature 398 Class A apartment homes, is under construction and projected to open in 2022. 

Mill Creek Residential, a leading developer and operator specializing in premier rental communities across the U.S., today announced the start of preleasing at Modera Flagler Village, a luxury high-rise apartment community located moments north of downtown Fort Lauderdale.

Located on the north end of the lively Flagler Village neighborhood, the 24-story community features 350 apartment homes, an elevated pool deck with panoramic views and several work-from-home spaces for the ever-increasing remote worker. First move-ins are scheduled for September.

“We are big believers in Flagler Village, which has become one of the most desirable places to live in all of Fort Lauderdale,” said Jeff Meran, executive managing director of the Southeast for Mill Creek Residential. “In addition to a downtown experience and easy access to Las Olas Boulevard and the beaches, residents can enjoy the many local shops, breweries and restaurants Flagler Village has to offer. We are excited to open our doors and welcome our initial residents with a top-of-market experience in another Modera community.”

Situated at 555 Northeast 8th Street immediately west of US1 and across from the 90-acre Holiday Park, Modera Flagler Village sits just north of Fort Lauderdale’s central business district, putting residents in prime position to access the city’s thriving job market, cultural scene and multitude of entertainment options. That includes the Flagler Village Technology and Arts District (FATVillage) and Music and Arts South of Sunrise (MASS District). The site’s superb Walk Score of 92 signifies a “Walker’s Paradise.”

Fort Lauderdale International Airport is within a short drive of the commuter-friendly community, which offers a variety of transit options. Interstate 95, the city’s key north-south thoroughfare, is easily accessible, and residents can access West Palm Beach and Miami via the nearby Fort Lauderdale Brightline station. Additionally, Port Everglades and its vast array of employment opportunities are also within a short commute. 

Modera Flagler Village will offer studio, one-, two- and three-bedroom homes with den and penthouse layouts available. The spacious rooftop deck offers a resort-inspired swimming pool, lounge seating, and a barbecue area with picnic tables. Additional community amenities include an expansive greenway with lush landscaping, indoor/outdoor clubroom with gaming areas, private conference room, dedicated dog walk and a ride-share drop-off area. The community’s club-quality fitness studio includes a TRX system, yoga room and spin studio. 

Apartment interiors include a choice of two designer kitchen finishes, Energy Star stainless steel appliances, quartz countertops, tile backsplashes, hardwood-inspired flooring, upgraded fixtures and cabinet pulls, designer lighting, full-size washers and dryers, spacious bedrooms with built-in storage spaces, tile shower surrounds and linen closets. Select homes offer moveable kitchen islands, built-in work-from-home space, pass-through closets, double vanities with large mirrors and private patios or balconies. Additionally, penthouse layouts include 9.5-foot ceilings. Residents will also have access to digital package lockers, dedicated bike storage, additional storage, controlled-access garage parking and several smart-home features, including programmable Honeywell thermostats and keyless entry. 

Modera Flagler Village marks Mill Creek’s second development in Fort Lauderdale, joining Modera Port Royale, which sold in Nov. 2020, and Mill Creek’s sixth development in Broward County.
