One very visible aspect—the transformation of the remaining Jeffries Projects towers to senior apartments—of the
Woodbridge Estates
development is currently underway. The interiors have been remodeled
and exterior renovations, including construction of new entryways and
parking lots as well as adding roof capping, have begun. Additionally,
the building closest to the Lodge Freeway will soon feature a clock on
all four faces of its roof.
Interior renovations of the
buildings included expansion of the apartments; eight units on each
floor were made into four. The Woodbridge Senior Apartments, as they
are called, are leased to residents 55 and older.
The entire
Woodbridge Estates development is 47 acres and estimated to be a $97
million investment. Other phases include the occupied Woodbridge Manor,
a 98-unit senior-enhanced apartment complex and future development of a
retail strip at the northwest corner of Martin Luther King, Jr.
Boulevard and the M-10 Service Drive. Tood Craft, community sales
manager for the project, says the development has already received
interest from University Foods and CVS.
