Nearly a year following the announcement that Art Lucas of Lucas Properties would be completing a multi-phase development in downtown Darien on the banks of the Darien River guests and leaders were invited to attend a groundbreaking ceremony held, January 9, 2019.
With guest speakers that included Darien’s Mayor, Hugh “Bubba” Hodge, McIntosh Co. Industrial Development Authority Board President, Chris Harper, and Former Senator Ed Perry. Mr. Lucas gave an insight to the timeline of events leading up to today’s ceremony, a description of what is to come and ended the ceremony with a shovel and chant of “turn that dirt”.
Actual construction is set to begin next week on Phase 1 which will feature 12 condominium units at approximately 2200 square feet each. These luxury units intend to have a Mediterranean-influenced design and without a doubt will feature luxury appointments and breathtaking views of the Darien River waterway and marsh vistas.
The other phases of this project include a boutique hotel featuring 40+ guest rooms, conference/meeting rooms, dining options, marina and more. Also includes a restaurant opportunity at the foot of the Darien River bridge on the site of the former Industrial Development Authority office.
Slightly surreal, to see the changes in the downtown “landscape” but excited to see the opportunities that will be created by this project. As the walkability movement continues to grow nationwide, amongst all generations, I feel this project will spark a movement that will bring updates in existing downtown properties.
The vitality of our downtown stands to be re-birthed. That is a phenomenal projection.
Any buyer-prospects who may be interested in additional information on the project, please reach out to us for a prospect packet. Currently taking condominium contract reservations with deposit. Also, a potential restaurant opportunity.
