Developers propose mixed-use residential project near Baptist Health and I 75

Lexington is set to undergo significant development with the approval of a mixed-use project that will enhance both residential and commercial spaces in the area. During a recent planning meeting, city officials discussed a comprehensive plan to revise the layouts for Lots 1 and 2, located near the intersection of Winchester Road and Polo Club Boulevard, just off I-75.

The proposed development includes 274 residential units on Lot 1, alongside a mixed-use structure featuring 88 residential units and office space. Lot 2 will host two residential buildings, each with 53 units, and an additional mixed-use building with 80 residential units in the southwest corner. The project also plans for a clubhouse, pool area, and shared parking facilities to accommodate residents and visitors.

Key to this development is the internal road network, which includes Commerce Avenue and Paramount Drive. Commerce Avenue will connect to Baptist Health's property, while Paramount Drive will eventually link to a proposed tunnel road under I-75, enhancing accessibility in the region.

This initiative is part of a broader expansion effort in the area, aimed at fostering growth and improving infrastructure. The city anticipates that these developments will not only provide much-needed housing but also stimulate local economic activity by integrating residential living with office spaces.

As the project moves forward, city planners are optimistic about the positive impact it will have on the community, paving the way for a vibrant mixed-use environment that meets the needs of residents and businesses alike.
