First apartment units to deliver summer 2017
WILMINGTON, N.C. – Childress Klein, one of the Southeast’s preeminent real estate developers, has started construction on the 258-unit first phase of Element Barclay, a new, 402-unit luxury apartment community at the mixed-use Barclay development in southwest Wilmington.
Located along South 17th Street, Element Barclay will consist of nine three-story, garden-style apartment buildings and resident amenities including a spacious clubhouse, resort-style saltwater pool, bocce ball court, dog park and outdoor fireplaces and grilling areas. The first units at Element Barclay are expected to be available for occupancy in the summer of 2017. Leasing will begin in the spring of 2017.
The community will be adjacent to The Pointe at Barclay, a new retail development that will feature a 14-screen movie theatre plus restaurants and retailers including Il Forno Pizzeria, Tavern on 17th Street, Chop’s Deli, Duck Donuts, Mexican restaurant Zocallo Street Food & Tequila and Far from France bakery.
It will also be walking distance to Halyburton Park, which is located on the opposite side of George Anderson Drive from the Barclay development.
“Element Barclay will offer residents modern apartments surrounded by restaurants, retail and recreation,” said Kelly Dunbar, a partner with Childress Klein.
“This is a rare opportunity to be part of a truly walkable community in midtown Wilmington, and we look forward to setting the bar for luxury living in the Port City.”
The development team for Element Barclay includes general contractor Harold K. Jordan & Co Inc., architect Rule Joy Trammell + Rubio, civil engineer Hanover Design Services and hardscape and landscape designer Mihaly Land Design.
Since its launch in 2011, Childress Klein’s multifamily division has developed high-rise and garden style luxury apartment communities in Charleston, S.C., Charlotte, N.C. and Nashville, Tenn. The company has approximately 2,000 units in operation or under construction across the Southeast, including Museum Tower a 43-story apartment tower in downtown Charlotte that is scheduled to be complete early next year.
