Fleur de Lis on Main Construction Progress
The Fleur de Lis on Main is an 82-unit development that is now under construction at the corner of Preston & Main St in downtown Louisville. The five-story development will feature street level retail space and secured, underground parking. Each of the units will be on floors 2-5 and will feature a balcony (with either courtyard or street views). There are fifteen different floor plans, from 1,067 sq. ft to 2,016 sq ft in a variety of formats. All of the units have two bedrooms, but some are lofts, some have dens and others are in a townhouse format, with prices from $240,000 to about $440,000, dependent on configuration and views. In May, the developers announced that 30% of the development was pre-sold, just prior to the end of pre-construction pricing (June 1, 2007). Based upon my review of the currently available units at Fleur de Lis on Main, about 33% have been sold as of mid-July.
The condo/loft development is being constructed in the middle of the fast developing East Main District, directly across the street from Preston Pointe and diagonally across the street from Slugger Field, baseball stadium home of the Louisville Bats. On the opposite side of Preston street are the Park Place Lofts. There are 11 (!) residential developments either built or planned within one block.
I took a few pictures to show the current construction status. The foundation and underground parking appear to be substantially complete. Work has already begun on the first floor’s steel infrastructure. Work began last year (August 2006), but appears to now be making substantial progress.
