“Continued job growth throughout the city of San Antonio has ensured a high demand in multi-family developments,” said Brad Miller, President of Encore Multi-Family. “The City’s commitment to the urban core for residential development and the opening of HEB’s first downtown grocery store have been game changers in promoting a downtown living experience similar to other large cities in Texas.”

The project will include uniquely designed resident amenities and common areas including a pool and spa, dog park, and structured parking garage. Residences will begin leasing Fall of 2018.

“Encore SoFlo residents will be able to take advantage of modern, urban living including living within walking distance of the South Flores Market H-E-B, the River Walk, San Pedro Creek, a variety of entertainment and dining options, and other downtown businesses including the emerging tech district,” said District 1 City Councilman Roberto C. Treviño. “Downtown is a neighborhood for everyone to live, work and play, and I applaud Encore Multi-Family for committing to their first downtown San Antonio residential development, Encore SoFlo.”

Greystar, a global leader in multi-family real estate services, will oversee property management for the development.

“We are delighted to have the opportunity to work with Encore Multi-Family,” said Jill Welborn, Managing Director of Real Estate at Greystar. “Encore SoFlo will be a vibrant community that offers modern apartment homes and unsurpassed amenities.”

Occupancy is currently scheduled for fall 2018, with an anticipated completion date of mid-2019.

(Fort Worth, Texas) October 20, 2016 – Encore Multi-Family, LLC, a subsidiary of the Dallas-based Encore Enterprises, Inc., is officially under contract to break ground on the first private development on Panther Island. The thoughtfully designed 233,198 square-foot multi-family community will feature creative solutions to connect the streetscape to the Riverwalk environment planned for the district.

Located at the intersection of 4^th Street and North Main Street, residents at the 300-unit community will be walking distance to Panther Island Brewing, Coyote Drive-In, and Panther Island Pavilion.

The community will be situated along the first segment of a series of interconnected canals that will wind throughout the island. This portion of the canal has been designed to accommodate a stop for the water taxis that are expected to serve the island. In addition, it will be accessible for those wanting to launch kayaks, canoes, and stand up paddle boards.

We are dedicated to creating a special pedestrian-focused experience that allows our residents to walk out their front door and walk along the canal to enjoy the boardwalk along Fort Worth’s future town lake,” said Bharat Sangani, Chairman of Encore Enterprises.

The design of the buildings celebrates Fort Worth’s rich connection to the railroad and takes cues from the historic railroad bridge trusses located throughout the city.
