Home Builder Developer - Interior Renovation and Design

A plan for a large new apartment building, the second to come forward since commercial properties on City Avenue in Bala Cynwyd were rezoned two years ago, will be up for review today in Lower Merion Township.

A tentative sketch plan for a six-story, 207-unit apartment building at 150 Monument Road will be before the townships planning commission Monday, July 28.

With planners recommendation, it would move forward to the Building and Planning Committee of the board of commissioners two days later.

Also next week, an ordinance to rezone properties on Bala Avenue under a new Bala Village zoning district will get a first look. The Building and Planning Committee will be asked to consider authorizing advertisement of a public hearing on the ordinance for possible adoption on Sept. 17.

Monument KPG III LLCs plan proposes a new residential building on part of its seven-acre parcel at 150 Monument Road, to join an existing six-story office building.

A new four-story parking garage would also be constructed to serve the office building, while there will be two levels of parking, 207 spaces, in the apartment building. In all, 673 parking spaces would be provided on the parcel, exceeding the 639 required, according to the plan on file with the township.

Drawings with the plan show a center courtyard with a pool deck in the residential building. The parking garage would include about 3,900 square feet of commercial or restaurant space.

The development proposal follows by a little more than a year a first apartment project under 2012s comprehensive rezoning of the City Avenue commercial district in Lower Merion to permit redevelopment of what was seen to be an office park and retail area in need of revitalization. A goal of rezoning, while permitting greater density and building height, was to transform the district over time into a 24/7 live-work-play environment, including new residential development.

Nolen Properties plan for an 11-story, 284-unit apartment complex on five acres at 335 Righters Ferry Road was first out of the gate. It received tentative sketch plan approval in March 2013. Under that plan, which is expected to come back for more detailed preliminary plan review in coming months, the historic Miller-Bell House, a farmhouse whose core dates to 1695, would be preserved on the property.

Brandon Henry figured the Silver Line would be up and running by the time the 404-unit apartment building he was constructing in Tysons Corner was complete.

I never thought we would beat Metro, he said. Never, ever.

But beat it he did. The Ascent, a 25-story high-rise, welcomed its first tenants in April.

Not only is the building the first of its kindwithin close proximity of a new Silver Line station, but it is a test case for one of the most central questions about the future of Tysons: Now that the area has Metro, will people choose tolive there?

Tysons already has a citys worth of office space, shopping and jobs.But it has hardly any people. In 2010, when the county passed a nearly 250-page plan calling for the urbanization of Tysons, only about 17,000 people lived there. Thats up to21,228 according to the latest estimate. Still, there are3.39 employees there for every resident more than double the ratio in Arlington.

The countys plan for aMetro-accessible, urban Tysons calls for100,000 residents, and Henrys building is the first of more than a dozen major projects and more than 10,000 apartments or condos targeted for empty parking lots and industrial properties surrounding the Metro stations.

So far Henry, a managing director at Greystar, a South Carolina firm with offices in Tysons, likes what he sees. About 30 percent of the building is leased to a mix of people, most of whom work in Tysons. The project is leasing at a pace that he says will have the building filled in another two years.

He and the company are confident enough that next month they will begin work ona second building even closer to the Spring Hill Metro Station station, on a mostly empty lot. That building, designed by R2L Architects of Georgetown, will add another 400 units.

Greystar is attracting residents with many of the amenities that are already popular in newer buildings in Arlington and the District: common areas that offer a rooftop pool, fire pits, pool tables and numerous grills and entertaining areas. It is about a quarter mile from the entrance to the Spring Hill station.

The rapid construction of new housing surprised Stuart Mendelsohn, a real estate attorney and former member of the board of supervisors who helped shaped the Tysons plan.
