Until 2020, GCRE had not participated in the
growth of apartment communities. That year GCRE and Knauer Properties partnered
with Jefferson Apartment Group to develop a unique site located within Oakland
Corporate Center, a 2 million sf office park developed by Jim Gorman and Chris
Knauer over a span of 20+ years. The result was J Creekside at Exton, a
291-unit four building community built on an unbalanced 13-acre site. The team
imported over 60,000 cubic yards of structural fill to raise the site's southern
half and installed geopiers under three buildings for foundational
reinforcement. J Creekside's extensive amenity package includes a large club
room with a hanging gas fireplace, fitness and yoga rooms, conference room,
kids playroom, and a large courtyard with pool, gas grills, and firepits.
