220 apartment units proposed for Greenfield
Two apartment developments, totaling more than 220 units for both seniors and others, are being proposed in Greenfield.
Brightlife Community would create 174 units for seniors on 16.1 acres at 11940 W. Edgerton Ave., according to plans submitted to the city by Greg Petrauski, who operates Apple-Hales Corners LLC.
Also, Pearson Point would create 48 market-rate units for the general population on 6.4 acres at 11800 W. Beloit Road, according to plans submitted by Raymond Chou, who operates Pearson Point LLC.
Both proposals are to be reviewed at Tuesday’s Plan Commission meeting. Both sites are now zoned for single-family residential use and would need city approval to change the zoning to allow apartments.
Brightlife Community would target seniors who can live independently. The units would range from one to two bedrooms. Its conceptual plans call for approximately 120 apartments in a pair of three-story buildings with underground parking. Those buildings would be constructed in two separate phases.
Another phase would feature 12 townhouse-style units in six buildings.
Finally, a future phase would provide another 42 units.
The conceptual site plan, by Rinka Chung Architecture Inc., includes 250foot buffers from existing homes, retaining as much green space, forestry and wetlands as possible, and having walking paths, according to a Plan Commission report.
Pearson Point would feature three two-story townhouse-style buildings, each with 16 units. The apartments would range from one to two bedrooms.
The buildings would have attached garages and would form a courtyard.
