The Harrisonburg City Council has granted approval to rezone the Frazier Quarry to allow a joint venture partnership between Bushrod Investments and Birchwood Capital Partners to initiate site plan approval on Quarry Heights in Harrisonburg, Virginia.

The Maryland-based development companies intend to seek site plan approval to obtain permits to build the residential community with 950 units, including townhomes, single-family homes and apartments. The nearly $220 million development is projected to generate nearly 2,000 construction jobs.

“The design of this carefully curated residential program was based on existing housing types in the Harrisonburg area and perceived demand in the future, as well as input from the City Council, the Planning Commission and staff,” stated David Strouse, President and CEO, Birchwood Capital Partners.
