Groundbreaking Ceremony Planned for the Greens at Van de Water Apartment Homes in Loveland, CO

March 16, 2012 Posted In

LOVELAND, CO — March 16, 2011— McWhinney will host a groundbreaking ceremony for Northern Colorado’s newest McWhinney Lifestyle Community, The Greens at Van de Water, at 3:00 PM April 7 on Mountain Lion Drive in Loveland. Construction and site work on The Greens at Van de Water began the week of March 14th.
A waiting list is available now for the studio, one‐, two‐ and three‐bedroom apartment homes. Preleasing is anticipated to begin this fall with the first apartments available for move‐in in the winter.
Each apartment home will feature efficient floor plans with quality finishes. There also will be a variety of products ranging from studios up to 3 bedroom apartment homes.
“Northern Colorado and Loveland have some of the lowest apartment vacancy rates in the state and leasing at our Eagle Ridge and Lake Vista Lifestyle Communities has been very strong, furthering the need for additional residential rental offerings in the region”, stated Mike Hill, senior director of multifamily development and operations for McWhinney. “With The Greens at Van de Water, we will be providing another quality rental product in the market and a great addition to the already existing lineup of McWhinney Lifestyle Communities in the region.”
According to Hill, McWhinney also plans to announce additional rental products for Northern Colorado as well as the Denver area later this year. McWhinney is currently under construction on 855 units in both Loveland as well as Westminster Colorado including Lake Vista at Centerra, Arbour Square at the Orchard Town Center and now The Greens at Van de Water. “We have been fortunate enough to close nearly $125 million in financing in the last 12 months through the HUD 221(d)4 and (a)7 programs, which we see as a great achievement in today’s economy,” added Hill.
A core philosophy at McWhinney is to build sustainable and environmentally friendly products when financially feasible. In keeping with that goal, The Greens apartment community was designed using sustainable and green practices, and is anticipated to receive LEED certification from the United States Green Building Council (USGBC) upon project completion.
“Providing our customers with green‐living options is something McWhinney believes will become a win‐win situation for both our customers and owners,” Hill said.
At The Greens, residents will enjoy mountain views, immediate access to many miles of trails, open space, and surrounding retail and businesses. The Greens at Van de Water will also feature:
• efficient floor plans with quality finishes;
• spacious walk‐in closets;
• full‐size washers and dryers in units;
• patios and balconies;
• maintenance‐free living;
• access to local trails;
