Landmark Properties Delivers The Legacy at Ann Arbor: A New Era of Student Housing

As a crucial player in the multifamily apartment industry, Landmark Properties has once again demonstrated its proficiency with the timely delivery of The Legacy at Ann Arbor, a pristine student housing community situated in the heart of Ann Arbor, MI at 616 E. Washington Street. This project, resulting from a collaboration with Cerca Trova, shines a light on the importance of strategic partnerships in the realm of real estate development.

ESG Architecture & Design lent their impressive design sensibilities to The Legacy, creating a structural marvel that seamlessly integrates a 19-story high-rise with a mid-rise building, giving a nod to the iconic Michigan Theater by its side. The construction expertise of Landmark Construction has been crucial, ensuring that the project not only met but exceeded industry standards, hence resulting in a property that was fully leased well in advance of the 2025-2026 academic year.

Inhabitants of The Legacy at Ann Arbor began settling into their new homes on August 1st, ready to experience the quality of living that Landmark Properties is synonymous with. "We're confident that this amazing project will exceed the expectations of our new residents who started moving in on August 1st," commented Jason Doornbos, Chief Development Officer at Landmark Properties, acknowledging the efforts and success of his team.

With a variety of housing options and upscale features in the 253 units, the residents are poised to enjoy a blend of convenience and luxury, right at their fingertips. The Legacy's well-appointed apartments with high-speed internet, stainless-steel appliances, quartz countertops, and in-unit laundry epitomize contemporary student living.

Moreover, the property boasts an impressive array of amenities spread across more than 9,700 square feet, including a rooftop pool deck, a clubroom with outdoor grilling facilities, a fitness center, and thoughtful additions such as a gaming lawn and an academic lounge. The development also includes on-site gated parking and 4,150 square feet of retail space, enhancing the property's appeal.

The location of The Legacy at Ann Arbor is one of its strongest selling points, positioned within moments of the University of Michigan campus, and the vivacious downtown. Howard Frehsee, principal of Cerca Trova, underscored the strategic positioning of the property, remarking, "When it comes to location, The Legacy is second to none." The convenience of having campus landmarks, dining, and retail experiences within walking distance underscores the adaptive nature of modern student housing.

The seamless execution of The Legacy at Ann Arbor by Landmark Properties, coupled with their astute approach to multifamily living, is not only an investment in bricks and mortar but an investment in the future leaders who will call it home. Congratulations to the pivotal teams that collaborated to elevate the living experience for students in Ann Arbor—a testimony to the visionary leadership within the multifamily apartment industry.
