Procida Funding & Advisors has selected the McCann Team of Keller Williams as its agents for a collection of new age-restricted homes at the Plaza Grande development in Cherry Hill.
According to a news release, the appointment is the latest addition to the team for a project that had stalled for more than two decades but is now headed for completion with Procida at the helm. The final piece of the property at Haddonfield Road and Chapel Avenue will include 251 units, with delivery slated for this summer.
The McCann Team’s Evangeline Gambardella and Jamie Quinn will lead the assignment.
“I believe The Plaza Grande is the crown jewel of the Garden State Park redevelopment project,” said Billy Procida, founder and CEO of Procida Funding. “Our commitment is unwavering, and we are dedicated to transforming this property into something extraordinary.”
The news follows Procida’s announcement in August that a firm he controls had acquired Plaza Grande, an age-restricted property that was originally started by Turnberry in 2004 and continued by D.R. Horton until the financial crisis roughly five years later. That paved the way for a local builder to take over and complete an initial 256 units at the time, with financing from Procida, ahead of his plan to build out the remaining phase.
The agents noted that Gambardella brings an extensive background in new construction real estate sales and large-scale residential leasing, having worked alongside leading experts Mike McCann and Jim Onesti. She holds a degree in corporate finance from Temple University’s Fox School of Business.
Quinn, a native of nearby Haddon Heights, has a track record of successful transactions and an intimate understanding of the local market in Camden County, the news release said.
