Cudahy could get 264 luxury apartments as part of new $30 million project proposal
Cudahy could get 264 luxury townhome apartments if a new project gets approved.
Sussex-based Sawall Development wants to construct the apartments on 19 acres currently owned by the City of Cudahy at the southwest corner of Sweet Applewood Lane and East Barnard Avenue and east of South Nicholson Avenue.
The $30 million project would include 12 two-story buildings featuring studio apartments around 500 square feet in size, one-bedroom units (around 800 square feet) and two-bedroom units (around 1,100 square feet).
Each of the units would have its own entrance and either a private balcony or patio area.
Sawall will present the proposal to Cudahy's Community Development Authority on Jan. 28.
The developer said in its submittal to the city the development would blend seamlessly into the natural landscape with a focus on 'the principles of sustainability and modern urban living.'
'This project aims to redefine suburban living by providing a harmonious balance between modern amenities and the tranquility of nature, creating a vibrant community where residents can thrive,' Sawall wrote in its submittal.
Sawall plans to retain ownership of the development once completed and will manage the property, per the submittal.
The architect for the project is Stephen Perry Smith Architects based in Milwaukee.
Sawall Development has created multi-family, townhome, commercial and retail developments across Wisconsin, including Mammoth Springs Apartments and Townhomes in Sussex, Rock Pointe Village in Lannon and The Granary Townhomes in Union Grove.
