Atlanta-based Audubon, a real estate firm specializing in multifamily acquisition, development, and management, is celebrating the groundbreaking of its first ground-up project—The Metro at Clearview in Metairie, Louisiana.
The 270-unit multifamily community will be the latest addition to Clearview City Center, a $250 million mixed-use redevelopment of the 50-year-old Clearview Mall. The redevelopment also includes upscale retail and entertainment space, a hotel, an Ochsner Health Systems medical facility, and 14,000 square feet of green space.
“This groundbreaking represents the start of another phenomenal project for our team in a market that means so much to us as a company,” said CEO Andrew Schwarz. “I know The Metro at Clearview will continue this pattern of impressive growth for Jefferson Parish, and my team and I are very excited to deliver game-changing apartment homes to the community.”
Spanning five stories, The Metro at Clearview will feature upscale amenities, including a fitness center, a business center, a resort-style pool, and a rooftop skyline deck. Completion of the community is slated for summer 2023.
“The property fits perfectly into our core strategy of investing in key markets in the Southeast that are growing and in need of high-quality, modern multifamily communities,” added Schwarz. “In 2022, we plan to continue expanding into these metro areas, such as Charlotte, North Carolina; Nashville, Tennessee; Atlanta; and Greater New Orleans.”
