PLANTATION, FLA. — A joint venture between Stiles and Prudential Real Estate Investors has commenced construction on the 321-unit One Plantation, a luxury apartment community located at the intersection of University Drive and Interstate 595 in Plantation. The partnership obtained $40.6 million in construction financing from PNC Bank for the project, which Stiles Construction is building. Amenities will include a pool, spa, fire pit, fitness center and an entertainment area with game rooms, a movie theater and a lounge. Cohen Freedman Encinosa designed the complex. In addition, Stiles has plans to renovate its 65,000-square-foot University Shoppes, which is adjacent to One Plantation. Construction is slated to begin later this spring. Both projects are scheduled for completion in the third quarter of 2013.
