www.GoodMorningGwinnett.com Lawrenceville and Smith Douglas Homes officials held a ribbon cutting on Tuesday for the first set of town homes to open in the Southlawn mixed-use development south of the Lawrenceville Lawn.
Smith Douglas Homes is building both townhomes and single family detached homes for the master developers, which are the Novare Group and George Berkow Inc.
“We’re so excited to be a part of downtown Lawrenceville and everything going on in this area,” Smith Douglas Homes Vice-President of Government Affairs Joe Padilla said during the ribbon cutting ceremony. “It’s just beginning to explode I think with opportunity and growth, and everything the city is doing with the retail down here as well as the Performing Arts Center that’s coming online soon.”
There are about 40 units, including some single-family detached homes, in the first phase of construction, although sales manager Joe Hawkins said 55 plots are being laid out in this phase.
