The Carthage Board of Commissioners on Monday approved a zoning request that clears the way for nearly 80 multi-family apartments at the intersection of U.S. 15-501 and Union Church Road.
The request was submitted by Greenway Residential Development, a Charlotte company that plans to build an apartment community on the 13-acre property. Mark Richardson, assistant vice president of Greenway, said the company was attracted to the site because of its proximity to Food Lion and Walgreens.
âThereâs a huge need for apartment rentals in Moore County and in Carthage,â Richardson told the commissioners. âOur market study shows thereâs a need for at least 350 household rentals, and weâre only doing 78.â
