GBT Realty to Develop $20M Multifamily Community in Nashville

NASHVILLE, TENN. — GBT Realty Corp. plans to develop Belcourt Park, a $20 million, 76-unit multifamily development located in Nashville’s Hillsboro Village. The new property is designed for Nashville’s workforce population in need of affordable housing. Situated on a 0.7-acre site on Belcourt Avenue, the new apartment community will replace a building that most recently housed the Belmont Nursing Home, which closed in 2015. GBT Realty will develop the four-story property consistent with Nashville’s T4 Neighborhood Plan that outlines the need for more live/work/play developments in the city. The property will feature an onsite leasing and management office, concealed 84-space parking structure, limited street parking, bike racks and common amenities including a Wi-Fi workspace, espresso bar, fitness facility and a landscaped patio area with cabanas and fire pits. Floor plans will include studio, one- and two-bedroom residences, each equipped with complimentary Google Fiber and NEST Learning Thermostats. GBT Realty is not seeking public funding or concessions for the project. The Brentwood, Tenn.-based developer purchased the site for Belcourt Park in 2015 for $3.4 million. GBT Realty is also developing the $45 million Village 21 at Regions Park, which will be located roughly two blocks west of Belcourt Park. The development team for Belcourt Park includes EOA Architects, Littlejohn Engineering Associates and Waller Lansden Dortch & Davis LLP.
