Several developers in Gwinnett County have applied to the county’s department of planning and development to build new multifamily projects. 

Hathaway Development proposed building 305 apartment units that will include 148 one-bedroom units, 127 two-bedroom and 30 three-bedroom apartments on 23.9 acres at 2490 Sugarloaf Parkway. The Integrity Development Group has 11.54 acres under contract with plans to build 65 townhome units, also on Sugarloaf.  

Ridge Stone Capital requested a rezoning of a 2.1-acre tract located on the southeast side of Satellite Boulevard just north of Hopkins Mill Road. Ridge Sone wants to build a five-story condo building with 59 two- and three-story units ranging from 1,000 to 1,400 square feet. The building will share amenities with the proposed development located at 4580 Satellite Boulevard, which the developer intends to turn into a five-story condo with 56 two- and three-three-bedroom units. The condo is part of a mixed used project that will also contain about 48,000 square feet of office and retail.
