Continental Properties is moving forward with plans for a 280-unit apartment complex in Mount Pleasant at 13117 Spring Street. The 16-acre site has been rezoned to accommodate multi-family housing, aligning with the Village’s growth strategy. This new development will provide much-needed housing as demand continues to outpace supply in the area.
With new construction housing in short supply, nearly any viable location in Racine County is suitable for residential development, particularly areas near I-94, such as Mount Pleasant, which offer proximity to employers and amenities.
