Work is expected to begin later this year on the building of a new luxury apartment complex in northeast Albuquerque.
The planned Markana Uptown will see the construction of a single, six-story building housing 243 units.
To be built off Americas Parkway near the Hilton Garden Inn in an area of both hotels and offices, the project will also include co-working space, a fitness center, swimming pool, and patios.
The residential units will vary from studios to one-, two-, and three-bedrooms, with sizes ranging from 589 square feet to 1,226 square feet.
The project belongs to Legacy Development & Management, which already has two other apartment projects in the state: the completed Markana in the 6300 block of Alameda Boulevard in Albuquerque, and the Markana de Santa Fe, which is still under construction.
General plans call for work on the Markana Uptown to begin by late this summer with a fall 2022 completion date.
Legacy Development & Management was founded in 1978 and is based in Albuquerque. The company has long specialized in apartment, hotel, and office development, among other focuses.
