Orange City is welcoming a new addition to its community with the upcoming construction of Bristol Manor Apartments, a development specifically designed to cater to seniors. Located at 2301 Harley Strickland Blvd, this 80-unit multifamily housing project is now officially on its way following the issuance of a site plan development order last month by Development Services. As reported by the city's social media post, residents can expect the extension of Harley Strickland Boulevard to the eastern property boundary as part of the project's plans.
City officials said details about the construction timeline and specific features of the planned senior residences have not yet been released. The city indicated the project is intended to address housing needs for older residents in Orange City.
The announcement on the official Facebook page for the City of Orange City reads, "Construction is set to begin on Bristol Manor Apartments, an 80-unit multifamily senior housing development located at 2301 Harley Strickland Blvd." The inclusion of state-of-the-art amenities and facilities that cater to the wellness and leisure of the senior community is the usual trend in such developments. City officials acknowledged that new development projects can raise concerns among nearby residents, including potential increases in traffic and noise from construction. Officials stated that the Bristol Manor Apartments project aims to expand senior housing options and align with Orange City’s long-term growth plans.
