The construction of Ewing Heights in Tennessee by LDG Development has started at 334 Ewing Drive. This comes approximately 1 year after the 11.8-acre site was acquired by LDG in February 2022. The sale was mediated by Capstone Partner & Production Head Adam Klenk and Senior Advisor Austin Heithcock.
The project whose planning, civil engineering, and landscape architecture services will be offered by Catalyst Design Group, will likely cost $79.6M. The Tennessee Housing Development Agency provided 4% LIHTC and tax-exempt bonds, while Amazon’s Housing Equity Fund contributed $13.5 million.
The LIHTC funds were syndicated by Berkadia Affordable Housing, while RedStone Tax Exempt Financing conducted a private placement bond deal. Moreover, 10 years of tax exemptions were awarded by the City and MDHA through the PILOT program.
This is LDG’s sixth project statewide and its fifth in Nashville.

In prepared remarks, Councilwoman Kyonzte Toombs stated that the project will contribute to transportation and infrastructure improvements. These include resurfacing the walkways and constructing two new bus shelters.
