LC Nations is a future landmark development in the Nations neighborhood. This Development will add to the nearly 700 units currently under construction on nearby Centennial Blvd. For nearly a year, the image above was the only rendering of LC Nations. As expected in the early phase of Design, it didn’t provide a lot of insight into the scale of the project. Therefore, given the recent progression of the Design, here is the quick rundown for LC Nations:
LC Nations
- What’s Now: Multiple Industrial Lots
- What’s Next: Mixed-Use Development
- Developer: Lifestyle Communities
- Location: 5010 Tennessee Ave.
- Capacity: 400 Residential Units, Retail, Amenities & Parking Deck
- Status: Design/Zoning Phase
- Cost: $9Million Real Estate Transaction
The 50% design progression for LC Nations gives us a bit more context and insight. It provides a glimpse into how this Development will transform the identity of the Nations. Slide the image below to see the dramatic change on Louisiana Avenue.
Although LC Nations is a mammoth Development, the building setbacks and residential aesthetic makes it less of an imposition on the bordering streets. This is a welcomed approach (in my opinion) given the amount of adaptive reuse of surrounding industrial buildings. It will also better compliment surrounding residential homes. Slide the images below to see the updated renderings on Tennessee Avenue.
The proposed retail/amenity component of LC Nations (highlighted in yellow below) appears to be well thought out as it places its retail component on Louisiana Avenue. Not only is this currently a dead spot at a major intersection, it now will share the street with Bringle’s Smoking Oasis (Peg Leg Porker), click here for recent Post. Other Amenities include a pool, multiple courtyards and community rooms that will further activate this street.
