Continental Properties’ Springs Apartments Brand Continues to Grow

It has been a very busy summer and early fall for Continental Properties Company. At the outset of the year we set very aggressive goals for new apartment community groundbreakings, and the past several months have been very exciting! Since spring 2014, we’ve broken ground on 6 new communities, with plans to open each of them in 2015.

All of these new communities will offer the features that make Springs a great place to call home, including:

• Two-story building design that allows us to create a peaceful neighborhood feel
• Leash-free dog parks
• Private, ground-level entry to each apartment
• Attached garages
• Floor plans with open-design kitchens and kitchen islands
• Easy to maintain wood-look flooring in the living room, kitchen, and bathrooms
• Springs' commitment to outstanding customer service
• And much more!
