Our comprehensive approach to multifamily construction combines innovative design solutions, proven construction methodologies, and an unwavering commitment to quality that has made us the preferred multifamily construction company for developers, investors, and property owners across the Cape Fear region.

Our Project Types

Mid-High Rise
Our mid-high rise expertise encompasses sophisticated multi-story residential developments that maximize urban density while maintaining exceptional livability standards. One of our notable mid-high rise achievements includes the impressive Mayfaire Flats in Wilmington, a landmark residential development that showcases our ability to deliver premium multifamily housing in prime urban locations.
Mixed Use
Mixed-use developments represent the future of urban planning, seamlessly integrating residential, commercial, and retail spaces to create vibrant, walkable communities. Our expertise in mixed-use construction allows us to navigate the unique challenges of combining multiple building types and uses within a single project, ensuring optimal functionality and aesthetic appeal. A prime example of our mixed-use capabilities is The Range at Oleander in Wilmington.
Garden-Style
Garden-style communities offer residents the perfect balance of privacy, green space, and community amenities in a more intimate setting. Our garden-style portfolio includes projects like Hawthorne at Indy West, where thoughtful site planning and quality construction have created a desirable residential community that stands the test of time.
Workforce Housing
Addressing the critical need for affordable, quality housing for essential workers in growing communities, our workforce developments require careful attention to cost management while maintaining high standards of construction quality and design. Our approach to workforce housing ensures that budget-conscious projects never compromise on safety, durability, or resident satisfaction.
Active Adults & Campus
Active adult and campus housing projects cater to specific demographic needs, whether serving the 55+ community or providing student housing near educational institutions such as UNC Wilmington. Our experience in this sector includes understanding the specific requirements for everything from fitness facilities and social spaces to accessibility compliance and safety features.
Podiu & Parking Deck
Our podium and parking deck capabilities are exemplified in projects like The Range at Oleander, where we successfully integrated structured parking with residential and commercial elements to maximize land use efficiency.
