The Carter (Courtesy of StreetLights Residential) Dallas-based StreetLights Residential, founded about three years ago by executives of Gables Residential, has broken ground on this 20-story apartment tower in the Museum District. The building, which will be called The Carter, will have 305 units with one, two or three bedrooms. The site, 4 Chelsea Boulevard, is between Montrose and Travis just south of U.S. 59. “We pride ourselves on creating a luxury, hotel-like environment with each of our projects, and we believe the high-end amenities and multiple living options in this development achieve that vision,” CEO Doug Chesnut said in a statement. Building amenities will include a swimming pool with lounging areas and fire pits, a 19th-floor lounge with a kitchen and dining area, a game room, fitness center, resident lobby bar, dog park and private garages. The units will have 10-foot ceilings, keyless entry systems, build-in speakers and stone countertops. Gromatzky Dupree & Associates designed the building, which is being constructed by SLR Texas Construction on a nearly two-acre site. Landscaping will be designed by Lynda Tycher & Associates. The building is expected to be completed in 2017.
