MARETT / WAKE UNION
Reframing the plan. Unlocking the site.
65-acre mixed-use property · Residential and commercial entitlement · Wake Forest area, North Carolina.
PROJECT OVERVIEW
A new path to approvals.
Marett sourced and supported rezoning of a 65-acre site for a co-development opportunity in the Raleigh metropolitan area.
Prior applicants had been unsuccessful before Marett advanced a revised concept and planning approach.
Approved program
300 apartment units
90 townhomes
Approximately 183,000 square feet of commercial / retail
Entitlement is part of the investment strategy.
The project illustrates the value of connecting land acquisition, municipal engagement, planning changes and commercial feasibility before vertical construction begins.
Marett’s existing case study describes the revised plan’s successful rezoning and mixed-use approval.
The story is in the process.
A revised concept can change how stakeholders understand a site’s development potential. Early alignment on a program helps clarify the design, infrastructure and capital assumptions that follow.
