Construction on the massive Steel Gardens residential development is more than halfway complete, but the project still has about two years to go before all the homes are complete, according to the developer.
Located at the corner of Herrin Avenue and Spencer Street north of NoDa, the $48 million Steel Gardens is a neighborhood unto itself. It will feature about 240 condos, townhomes and single family homes, with condos starting in the $140,000s, townhomes from the $220,000s and single-family homes in the $380,000s.
The 11-acre former industrial site is a 10-minute walk from the future 36th Street light rail station. As part of the project, the original Herrin Oil building will be restored and turned into a small retail space such as a coffee shop or deli. Warehouse space will also be made for people who want to live and work in the same unit.
