Landmark Properties Acquires Galleria Mall in Ann Arbor, Michigan

ATHENS, Ga. (December 20, 2024) – Landmark Properties, a fully-integrated real estate firm specializing in development, construction, investment management, and operation of high-quality residential communities, has closed on the acquisition of an 0.58-acre site in Ann Arbor, Michigan which is currently home to the Galleria Mall. The firm plans to develop a 950+ bed student housing community at 1208 South University Avenue with its in-house construction arm, Landmark Construction.

“We’re excited to expand the Landmark footprint in Ann Arbor with the development of The Metropolitan,” said Jason Doornbos, Executive Managing Director of Development at Landmark Properties. “The South University location for The Metropolitan will provide UM students with quality off-campus housing just steps from campus.”

The planned residential development in the South University neighborhood of Ann Arbor is just a few short blocks away from the Ross School of Business, Michigan Diag, and a variety of shopping, dining and entertainment options. The community will be Landmark’s third ground-up residential development in Ann Arbor and the seventh project in the market managed by the company.

Fully furnished residences will feature granite countertops, hardwood-style laminate floors, stainless steel appliances, and in-unit laundry, and will come prewired for internet and cable access.

Standing 18 stories tall, The Metropolitan will feature approximately 5,200 square feet of ground-floor retail space, as well as community amenities, including a well-appointed clubhouse, modern fitness center, resort-style pool and rooftop lounge with a variety of seating options.
