Stiles Construction has started work on a new mixed-use development with numerous “green” features at the southern gateway to Plantation, Fla.’s Midtown District.

The development consists of: a new luxury apartment community—a joint venture with Prudential Real Estate Investors (PREI)– and the adjacent University Shoppes, which Stiles owns and is redeveloping. Located on a prime site at the northwest quadrant of University Drive and I-595, the residential/retail project will add dimension to the Midtown area’s emerging live-work lifestyle.

The residential component, which will be called “One Plantation,” will be a gated apartment community on a 5.5-acre site, with two 12-story towers offering a total of 321 residences.
