south_slope_townhomes_short_coxe_2015Another property acquisition on Asheville’s South Slope, and more residential construction coming.

This property at the intersection of Southside Avenue and Short Coxe Avenue was recently purchased for $1 million. Peter Thom bought the property and is planning to build 20 townhomes with garages. The architect on the project is Patti Glazer. Whitney Commercial Real Estate brokered the deal.

The project is the latest in a string of proposed apartment/condo construction projects that will bring about 300 units (by my count) to the South Slope. The wave of residential development follows a burst of new commercial development over the past few years, development that restaurants, bars and craft breweries.

      Indeed they do look better… because plans have been in the works for months to redevelop Lee Walker Heights as a mixed-income, high density urban neighborhood.

        Let’s hope the redevelopment is more successful than the redevelopment of The Block.
