Developer Kent Cummings has unveiled plans for what would be the largest single project ever built in Apex: a 1,071-acre, high-density community called Trinity.
Trinity would follow the model of Raleigh's North Hills with a dense mix of residential and commercial buildings that one day would carry a value of more than $1 billion.
Cummings is treating the assemblage of land like an urban infill project that would link the residential growth areas around Apex, Holly Springs and Cary. Most of the property is bounded by U.S. 1 to the west, N.C. 55 to the east and the future Interstate 540/Western Wake Parkway toll road to the south.
Rezoning plans for Trinity, show parcels of mostly wooded areas on the south side of Apex that could accommodate up to 4,000 new homes, 2.2 million square feet of new retail and restaurants, and mixed-used buildings with more than a half-million square feet for office tenants.
Update: The projects in this area just keep on coming. HH Trinity(Tom Hendrickson)has closed on a large assemblage on Hwy 55 in Apex.
Here are some of the new businesses that are planned:
- Handee Hugo's and Bojangles are under construction.
- Apex fire station to be next to these.
- Kent Cummings is filing site plans for development of another retail assemblage across Hwy 55 from the HH Trinity tract
