A five-building, $23.01 million apartment complex called Normandy Cove has cleared a key permitting hurdle, landing among the largest commercial permits issued by the city this week. Planned for the Westside at 7375 Sheldon Drive, the project will cover roughly 151,927 square feet and include a clubhouse and a trash enclosure.

Project details

According to the Jax Daily Record, the city issued the permit March 16. The filing lists contractor HTG BDI LLC, a job cost of $23.01 million and five apartment buildings, along with a clubhouse and trash enclosure. The permit documentation puts the development’s footprint at about 151,927 square feet, marking it as a sizable new multifamily entry for the corridor.

Who’s behind the build

Housing Trust Group, the HTG brand behind multiple recent multifamily projects in the state, highlights similar developments on its website, underscoring the company’s ongoing role in Florida’s housing market.

Reporting by the Jax Daily Record points to growing developer interest along Normandy Boulevard and nearby corridors, with ongoing infrastructure improvements helping to improve access and keep the area on builders’ radar.
