COLUMBIA, MD-The Evergreens at Columbia Town Center, an upscale apartment community developed for active adults of 55 years and over, has made its official debut. RMJ Development Group is behind the creation of the multifamily community, which offers 164 units. “The Evergreens is the first active adult luxury rental project in the area,” says RMJ managing principal John D. Rhoad, Jr. “Most independent senior living facilities in the Washington/Baltimore corridor consist of either market-rate for-purchase homes or income-limited rental housing.”

Located just off Route 29, the Evergreens is at 10101 Governor Warfield Pkwy., adjacent to the nearly 1.4-million-sf the Mall in Columbia. Residents have access to a golf putting green, outdoor pool and whirlpool, greenhouse, fitness center, business center, library, clubroom and a separate guest suite. The total development cost for the four-story, wood-framed building has not yet been made available; however, according to project architect Hord, Coplan, Macht, the cost of construction–which was handled by general contactor Clark Realty Builders–was an estimated $13 million.
