June 13, 2008, Columbus, Ohio—Lifestyle Communities will break ground on their new River South community downtown on June 13, 2008. Located on 2.8 acres along South Front Street between West Town and Rich streets, the new project is estimated to open in late 2009 and will include 210 residential units. Lifestyle Communities has named this development The Annex and hopes to target young buyers looking for moderately priced housing in an urban setting.

“The beauty of downtown is that downtown is the amenity” says Michael DeAscentis Jr., CEO of Lifestyle Communities. “There’s absolutely pent-up demand for this young demographic. It’s a product at a price that they can afford”.

The apartments will include one and two bedroom units, with rent in the $800’s. Condominiums will start at $125,000, and the average base price of units will be in the low $200,000’s. The residential development will include enclosed courtyards, a fitness center, rooftop terraces and outdoor green space, as well as attached parking for all units. Lifestyle Communities plans to spend $30 million to build the project.

The new Lifestyle Communities project, The Annex will be built on land formerly occupied by the old downtown Lazarus parking lots. This development is a part of the revitalization efforts in the River South District, bringing moderately priced housing to Downtown Columbus. As a part of the City’s efforts, a new 773-space parking garage is being constructed, Front Street will become a two-way street, and a pedestrian-friendly environment is being created along Wall Street.

“This is a cooperative effort with The City of Columbus and Columbus Downtown Development Corporation to bring affordable housing to downtown,” says DeAscentis. “This project is being realized because of the commitment of Mayor Michael B. Coleman to bring housing to downtown, and is only possible because of the dedication and assistance of the staffs of Public Service under Director Mark Kelsey, Public Utilities under Director Tatyana Arsh, development under Boyce Safford Reese, and CDDC under the direction of Guy Worley.”
