Proposed $100 million Hixson commercial and retail project.
This 2011 file photo shows part of the land that will be redeveloped into apartments under a new plan under development by the Scenic Land Co. in Hixson. Florida-based developer Integra Land Co. will start construction on 280 high-end apartments in the Hillocks Farm planned community in north Hixson this spring, company officials said Tuesday.
The Lake Mary, Fla.-based developer of multifamily housing will build and operate the new Hixson apartment complex, dubbed Integra Vistas. Integra Land Co. operates more than 20,000 units across the Southeast, including Integra Hills in Ooltewah.
The company will buy and develop property within the Hillocks Farm master planned community – a $100 million project, in total.
Integra Land Co. officials declined to say Tuesday how much they expect to invest in the apartments.
David McDaniel, principal at the company, said construction is likely to start by late spring this year, and the new units should be move-in ready by early 2017. It’s difficult to put a hard date on the completion of the project this early, he said.
