Columbia, Maryland (PRWEB) January 15, 2014
On January 20th, Paragon at Columbia Overlook, a new apartment community coming to Columbia, Maryland, will begin offering the first tours of its new community. Located next to the Costco in the Gateway Overlook Shopping Center on Rt. 108, the first residential building and leasing center for the community are scheduled to open in February. Once fully complete, the community will have five distinctive, four-story, elevator-served apartment buildings with a total of 320 apartments offering one and two-bedroom floor plans.
Never mind the spacious apartments with the nine-foot ceilings, granite countertops, high-end wood cabinetry, and upgraded flooring, whats most interesting about Paragon at Columbia Overlook is the unique set of amenities this community will offer its residents. Tailored to the active lifestyles of the surrounding community, Paragon will feature a first-class Resident's Club, 24/7 fitness center, saltwater pool, greenhouse, Adventure Center, and many more unique, word-class amenities. The Adventure Center will feature an area to repair bikes which directly reflects Columbia residents interest in biking and the miles of bike trails that are heavily used in the area. It will also provide storage for kayaks and canoes which are also heavily used at the many lakes in Columbia. The fitness center will not only be state-of-the-art, but will also accommodate any schedule with 24/7, on-demand, virtual fitness classes for groups or individuals. To further support the healthy lifestyles of its residents, the communitys greenhouse will allow year-round growing of fruits and vegetables which speaks to the demand for fresh, organic, locally grown produce. And considering that 65% or more of us are pet owners, the community will also be pet-friendly with a bark park and pet-washing station which will certainly please our four-legged friends.
Josh Fidler, principal for the developer, Chesapeake Realty Partners said, "The Paragon lifestyle allows residents all the 'me time' they crave, with proximity to shopping, recreation and transportation, and Columbia provides the opportunities to engage in the activities they love.
Even more impressive is that in recognition of todays environmental sensibilities, the community has been built to LEED Silver standards. LEED stands for Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design and is an internationally recognized green building certification system developed by the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC). In order to be certified, the community must achieve standards for high efficiency heating and cooling systems, energy efficient appliances, high efficiency hot water heating, energy efficient lighting, and indoor environment quality, just to name a few.
Due to high demand, the community is already accepting applications and the schedule for tours is filling quickly. If the current leasing pace is any indication of future interest, Paragon at Columbia Overlook is likely to be Columbias hottest new address.

Plymouth Council heard three presentations during a workshop session Jan. 7 on a request to demolish two buildings in a historic zone on Germantown Pike, build a gym facility on Colwell Lane and allow construction of a 12-lot subdivision off Riverview Road.
Attorney Craig Lewis, representing the Metroplex Shopping Center off Chemical Road, said the owner of 229 and 231 W. Germantown Pike was requesting a certificate of appropriateness to demolish two buildings because they have black mold, are crumbling inside and cannot be remodeled for reuse. The buildings are located in the historical district of Plymouth, and the certificate is required for demolition of buildings.
Lewis said the building at 231 W. Germantown Pike dated to the early 20th century, according to the cultural resources group.
It had a number of additions put on at various times. It has no historic value to it, Lewis said. It was occupied for a time and it is not occupied now.
Lewis described the building at 229 W. Germantown Pike as an older structure.
Councilman Martin Higgins asked what would happen to the Livezey House building in the future. Lewis said it would not be affected by the demolition of the two nearby buildings and would continue to be preserved since it is located in the historic district.
The land will become open space and might be used for a part of the Montgomery County Cross County Trail in the future, Lewis said.
Council Chairman Sheldon Simpson said that a certificate of appropriateness would be acted on at the Jan. 13 council meeting.
Darin Barker, the owner of CrossFit Inspire of Frazer, asked council not to oppose his companys zoning request to build a CrossFit in an industrial warehouse at 1050 Colwell Lane. The company has a hearing before the Plymouth Zoning Hearing Board scheduled for 7 p.m. Jan. 20 at the township building.
We are all class-led. It is all classes 100 percent of the time, Barker said. We have hourly classes. Continued...

Firefighters work to put out an attic fire in a home off of Mountain Close Lane Tuesday.
Contractors remodeling a home at 68 Mountain Close Lane, near Highland Lake Inn & Resort, were putting up new drywall in the otherwise vacant home when they smelled smoke Tuesday afternoon.
Michael McCarthy said they had started a small fire in the homes fireplace to keep the chill out while they worked in the house.
They didnt know it but somebody had roofed over the chimney, said Blue Ridge Fire & Rescue Chief Gary Brown.
The smoke and intense heat from the fireplace backed up in the houses attic, sparking a fire shortly before 2 p.m. McCarthy called 911.
Heavy smoke was escaping from the eaves of the house when firefighters arrived. There was a good-size fire in the attic, Brown said.
Firefighters cut a hole in the roof to access the fire in the attic when they noticed it had spread, but were relieved to find the flames had not sizzled through to the lower floors.
Brown said they cut about three holes into the attic to access the blaze. Water was pumped up from Highland Lake to extinguish the flames. Fire hoses blocked a lane on North Highland Lake Road, prompting officials to close the road from Greenville Highway to Highland Lake Drive.
Firefighters were able to save the home before it sustained any significant damage. Brown credited the fast actions of McCarthy reporting the fire and firefighters responding quickly for the successful outcome. The scene was cleared shortly after 3:30 p.m.
Valley Hill Fire & Rescue, Dana Fire & Rescue, the Henderson County Rescue Squad and Henderson County EMS assisted.

Attic fire damages Hendersonville home
TORONTO You may have selected paint colours, tiles and finishes, but plans to gear up for a home renovation can quickly grind to a halt if you havent ensured key health and safety measures are in place.
A U.S. Centers for Disease Control report released earlier this month focused on a case in Quebec where 14 people fell ill with a pneumonia-like infection after the exterior brick of a century-old house was removed as part of a renovation.
Workers, residents of the home and neighbours have recovered after developing symptoms of a fungal disease called histoplasmosis, which is carried in the droppings of bats and birds. Infection symptoms include high fever, coughing, chest pain and shortness of breath.
Cases of histoplasmosis infection are rare in Canada and usually involve construction work that stirs up clouds of dried-up aerosolized spores that people end up inhaling. In the Quebec case, workers had been given masks to wear but didnt do so continuously due to hot weather.
Whether homeowners are embarking on a do-it-yourself project or enlisting a professional, here are tips from experts for making health and safety a top priority throughout the home renovation process.
Cory Norris, chief project estimator at Greater Toronto Contractors, said the No. 1 determining factor as to whether there will be problems with the home is its age. They also look at the state of the home, with visible damage among the red flags.
If you can see water damage, if paint is peeling off walls here and there if it hasnt been maintained well, they probably have ignored any kind of problems that have been going on as well: rodents, bats, for example, mice
Norris said workers will go into the attic and lift up some insulation where mice, rodents and squirrels love to make their home.
While a few droppings arent a cause for concern, discovering a significant amount is problematic and requires expert attention. I stop, I come out and then I tell the homeowner, We should have this stuff tested, Norris said.
If I go into the home and see the old paper-type wrapping around plumbing pipes, we say: Dont touch a thing here; we have to get this tested for asbestos. Any home thats been built pre-80s, theres going to be a real high chance that theres asbestos somewhere, he added.
