Spandrel Development Partners announced the name of its mixed use project in Savannah’s historic district. The Baxly, located at 630 Indian Street, is situated on 1.7 acres and is only a few steps away from Savannah’s picturesque and historic riverfront. Occupying an entire city block, The Baxly will have nearly 360,000 square feet of high quality residential and commercial space, including 275 luxurious multi-family rental apartments, 10,000 square feet of prime retail leasing space, 22,000 square feet of amenity space, indoor parking with car charging area, and more.
“It’s no secret that Savannah is a special place and we are excited that The Baxly’s residents and businesses will be able to call this city home,” Ian Levine, Spandrel’s co-founding principal said. “We are confident that The Baxly will help to meet the area’s growing demand for well-planned, quality development.”
The Baxly’s studio, one and two bedroom apartments will feature expansive views of the Savannah River, bridge and historic downtown. Residences boast elegant features such as nine foot ceilings, custom kitchen cabinetry, GE stainless steel kitchen appliances, designer bathroom finishes, granite kitchen and bathroom countertops, and washer and dryer. Most residences will also have private balconies and patios.
“We have spent a lot of time studying Savannah and the southeast,” explained Emanuel Neuman, Spandrel’s co-founding principal. “Savannah and the surrounding areas continue to experience growth and with that growth comes a demand for a unique development like The Baxly.”
The Baxly is already making its mark as it will be one of the first fully-amenitized, multi-family residential buildings built in Savannah since the 1960s. At seven stories high, The Baxley will be one of the largest buildings in the city’s historic district and house the city’s largest solar roof farm.
According to Levine and Neuman, The Baxly will have dedicated, onsite management and extensive amenities including The Baxly Club, which takes amenities to a whole new level.
The Baxly Club has a uniquely designed co-working space and media lounge, gourmet test kitchen, wine storage and tasting lounge, tool and craft shop, and fitness center adjacent to a 10,000 square-feet outdoor lounge with pool, fire pits and grills. Other amenities include a pet spa and recreational area as well as controlled bike storage and bike repair essentials.
