Georgia developer submits plans for 13-story student apartment behind Chauncey Hill Mall in West Lafayette

LAFAYETTE — The Tippecanoe County Area Plan Commission is reviewing and negotiating new plans for a high-rise apartment complex in West Lafayette south of the Chauncey Hill Mall.

The developer, Landmark Properties based in Athens, Georgia, filed plans in hopes of constructing a 13-story apartment called "The Standard," which would contain 254 housing units and 607 bedrooms.

The proposed apartment complex would sit due south of the Chauncey Hill Mall and be built on the 210-222 West Wood Street plots of land, replacing the Evergreen Campus apartments currently sitting on the land.

According to the development plans, the proposed complex will have 21 studio apartments, 40 one-bedroom units, 56 two-bedroom units, 51 three-bedroom units and 86 four-bedroom units. Each of the units are expected to be pre-furnished and there will be approximately 207 residential parking spaces.

The complex will have three above-ground-level floors dedicated to parking, with the other ten meant for residential units.
