Developer Receives Okay for Monroe Mixed-Use Venture

Pappas Properties received approval from the Monroe City Council for Monroe Village, a mixed-use development that will bring a new national grocery store, a mix of housing options, and major transportation and roadway improvements.

Harris Teeter is planned to be the grocer anchor of the center. In addition to the grocer, the walkable retail village will include shops and restaurants, banks, professional and medical offices, and a gathering area.

The housing component will include 340 multifamily units, including 128 garden apartments, 89 townhomes, 123 attached homes and some detached single-family, for-sale homes. Project amenities include 70 acres of open space, a dog park, a fitness center, a pool, a pickleball or tennis court, a bike repair station and a putting green.

Pappas has agreed to spend $5 million for transportation and roadway improvements.
