Larken Associates is offering its first look at a new 420-unit luxury apartment property in the Lehigh Valley and less than five miles from New Jersey’s western border.
The developer, which is based in Branchburg, said recently that it has launched preleasing at what’s known as Trailside Village in Forks Township, Pennsylvania. It’s looking to lure renters to the collection of garage and garden-style rentals with the promise of a modern, comfortable living experience and amenities such as a clubhouse with an outdoor heated pool, a fitness center, a game room, a work pod room and a lounge, as well as outdoor spaces including a tot lot, a bark park and a community walking trail.
Larken said the property at 200 Trailside Drive is on track to welcome its first residents in spring 2026, adding to a platform that includes more than 20 communities totaling some 3,000 owned and managed residential units across New Jersey and Pennsylvania. The firm is also in various development stages for several additional new projects in the two states.
“The launch of preleasing at Trailside Village, our largest Larken Living project to date, is an exciting milestone for us,” said David Gardner, the firm’s CEO and president. “Designed with today’s residents in mind, this community blends luxury finishes, modern amenities and a highly connected location to deliver the elevated living experience that defines our Larken Living brand.”
Along with its one- and two-bedroom apartments, Trailside Village will have 25,000 square feet of on-site retail, office and medical space. Residents, meantime, will be minutes from restaurants, shops and entertainment, including the offerings of downtown Easton.
