HARRISONBURG, VA (Rocktown Now) — With Harrisonburg City Council granting unanimous approval to rezone the Frazier Quarry back in November, that has allowed a joint venture partnership between Bushrod Investments and Birchwood Capital Partners to initiate site plan approval on the site.

The Maryland-based development companies intend to seek site plan approval to obtain permits to build the residential community that is designed to support around 950 units, with townhomes, single-family homes and apartments planned in six distinct neighborhoods.

Company officials say the nearly $220 million development is projected to generate nearly two thousand construction jobs, create $3.3 million in annual property tax revenue, and inject nearly $60 million in annual spending by residents into the local economy.

An official groundbreaking date has not been announced but could come later this year or early next year.
