Jefferson Apartment Group is planning a new apartment and retail development in the Thornton Park neighborhood of downtown Orlando. The “520″ as the new project is called comprises two buildings: a mid-rise and and a high-rise building with a combined 30,000 square feet of ground-level retail. The first building will be 10 stories with 200 units while the second building will have 310 units spread out over 12 floors. Construction should start in April 2016, just as Jefferson Apartment will be finishing Artisan 420, a $42.7 million, 299-unit apartment complex, on the same street as the new “520” project.
