The Providence Place mixed-use development in Arlington will be located on the south side of Milton Wilson Boulevard and east of the Shops of Arlington Village and Hall Creek at Arlington Apartments. Benjamin Orgel is a principal at Memphis-based Tower Ventures CRE LLC. He said Tower Ventures purchased the 45 acres on the south side of Milton Wilson Boulevard near Airline Road about four years ago for a planned development. The Bank of Bartlett, which had initially negotiated the planned development with the Town of Arlington, sold the 45-acre site to Tower Ventures in 2022. “After we took it over, we finished out the planning process,” Orgel said. “We’ve been working on getting it developed. We’ve had some setbacks, but nothing big. However, it did take us a little bit more time than we expected. Now, we are basically at the point where we can start developing. We’ve done all the site work, development work, planned work and so we are about to break ground.” What will Providence Place development in Arlington include?
