Mountain Creek apartment community starting in southwest Dallas

Developer NRP Group’s rental project is planned on just-sold land near Interstate 20.

A developer that just purchased part of a large building site in southwest Dallas is planning a groundbreaking later this week.

Cleveland-based apartment builder NRP Group, one of the country’s top apartment builders, plans a formal construction start on Thursday for its Ascent at Mountain Creek rental community.

The apartment project is being built on part of a 30-acre site that NRP acquired near the northwest corner of Interstate 20 and Spur 408 in the Mountain Creek development.

The apartment builder acquired the southwest Dallas development site from longtime Mountain Creek landowner Courtland Group.

Along with NRP Group’s purchase, Village West Dallas Development LLC, which is managed by Austin-based Houston Capital Management, acquired the adjoining 430 acres for future development.

The properties are the largest undeveloped portion of the Mountain Creek development which dates back to the 1980s.
