Reynolds Asset Management has completed a new 103-unit apartment building in Orange after redeveloping the former longtime site of a hardware store in the city’s Valley Art District.
Known as The Mural Lofts, the project at 606 Freeman St. is two blocks from NJ Transit’s Highland Avenue station and about a half-mile south of Interstate 280. Reynolds said it has launched preleasing at the collection of studio, one-bedroom and two-bedroom buildings, with occupancy slated for September.
Monthly rents at the five-story property range from $1,900 and $2,900, the developer said.
“We are incredibly proud to welcome residents to this community and specifically to The Mural Lofts,” said Lou Reynolds, CEO of Reynolds Asset Management. “This project blends history with modern elements, while highlighting the dynamic artistic values of the area. We created a space where residents can enjoy top-of-the-line amenities and sophisticated finishes and also feel a deep connection to the region’s storied past.”
Located at the former Orange Valley Hardware Store property, The Mural Lofts has amenities such as a rooftop lounge and grill areas, a modern fitness facility and a business center, along with a covered ground-floor parking garage. Reynolds added that it was working with the West Orange Arts Council, a nonprofit with a mission of bringing art and people together, to commission an artist to create a mural that will be unveiled following the property’s grand opening later this year.
Residents are also a short walk from the West Orange Arts Center and several restaurants and shops.
