“The Mark Knoxville is the second project in our partnership with Manulife Investment Management, and it will be our fourth property near The University of Tennessee,” said Landmark President and CEO, Wes Rogers. “We like the underlying fundamentals of the Knoxville market and look forward to delivering more purpose-built student housing beds to area students.”
Located a short walk to the Northwest of the UTK campus, The Mark will offer unit types ranging from studios to five-bedroom options. The property will offer an on-property garage for resident vehicles and a shuttle bus to campus. The features and location of The Mark will make it an attractive option for students seeking luxury housing in the Knoxville market.
“We are excited to continue the growth of our partnership with Landmark with this development at the University of Tennessee, supported by local market fundamentals and Landmark’s experience operating in the area.” said Manulife Investment Management Managing Director, Edward Dunn.
Apartment units at The Mark will include a gourmet-style kitchen with ample cabinet space, quartz countertops and stainless-steel appliances. Every residence is fully furnished, offers hardwood-style flooring, and a private bathroom for every bedroom.
Additionally, residents will enjoy The Mark’s best-in-class amenities including a rooftop pool and Jumbotron. Residents will have access to many other amenity spaces including a 24-hour study lounge, a pickleball court, a stylish rooftop clubhouse, and a state-of-the-art fitness center. The thoughtful design of The Mark’s 25,000 square foot courtyard amenity spaces, featuring fire pits, grilling stations and hammock groves, add extra opportunities for recreation and relaxation for residents and guests across the property.
Construction on the project is slated to begin in June 2023 with Landmark Construction as general contractor.
