A section of the complex called “The Cottages” was also designed which are single-story stand-alone housing structures. 

These uniquely designed apartments incorporate features such as exposed brick walls, oversized windows, and high-end details including hardwood flooring, garden tubs, stainless steel appliances, and granite countertops. The dynamic clubroom features 3 fitness rooms, a lounge beside the resort-style pool, and a fire pit.
