First Phase of Mixed-Use Community Adds 397 Homes to Western Broward County

DAVIE, Fla., Oct. 23, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Mill Creek Residential, a leading developer, owner-operator and investment manager specializing in premier rental housing across the U.S., today announced the start of preleasing at Modera Academical Village, a mixed-use apartment community in Western Broward County.

The contemporary community, situated just east of S. University Drive and moments west of Nova Southeastern University, is the first of two phases and features 397 homes along with 9,500 square feet of ground-floor retail space. When complete, the Academical Village Master Plan will include a tree-lined central boulevard that provides direct access to the NSU campus, and a pedestrian bridge connecting to the campus and outdoor seating areas. First move-ins are anticipated for late December.

“We’re excited to officially open our doors and welcome our first residents to this truly unique community,” said Andrea Rowe, senior managing director of development in South Florida for Mill Creek Residential. “The master-planned village is rapidly becoming one of the most appealing attractions in the surrounding area, and we’re delighted to be a part of it. Residents will have immediate access to a variety of employment opportunities because the NSU campus and HCA Florida University Hospital are within walking distance. They’ll also enjoy prime connectivity to the greater South Florida area.”
