ALWAYS
THINKING LOCAL
Newly constructed luxury condos at The George were,
quite literally, made for downtown Durham.
At Beacon Street, our entire focus is on seeking out the
most authentic and most livable neighborhoods in The
Triangle—and throughout the Carolinas—and weaving
worthy new residences into the mix. Which makes each
of our communities site-specific, locally inspired
and intentionally connected to their immediate
surroundings.
WHAT DOES
THAT MEAN FOR
THE GEORGE?
The vision for The George condominiums grew out of our
desire to enhance an already special part of Durham. The
neighborhood, with all its activity, individuality and energy,
speaks for itself (hear some of what it has to say). Our most
important task, then, is ensuring that the one-of-a-kind
location we’ve been entrusted with becomes the home of
residences that do the area proud, while being a good
neighbor that fits comfortably into the existing surroundings.
We’ve assembled a team of designers, architects, historians and other specialists to turn that vision into a reality.
A team, we don’t mind saying, of all-stars.
