Construction on the new One Ranger’s Way Apartments has not yet been completed, but some units are already up for sale.
The luxury apartments, which feature 24-hour front desk staff, two resident-only bars, a pool, and a Zen garden, are still under construction.
The interior walls are still exposed, and walking through the building leaves white powder on your clothes and shoes, but developers promised Tuesday that the building will soon be ready for its first tenants.
The 800-square-foot, one-bedroom, one-bathroom apartment across the street from Choctaw Stadium, the former Rangers baseball stadium, is expected to cost renters nearly $2,100 a month.
The developer, Cordish Living, has built and managed other luxury apartments across the country. Apartments at the company’s Kansas City property, The One, currently range from $2,035 to $3,340 per month, as does an 800-square-foot one-bed, one-bath unit on One Ranger’s Way. There is.
Rob Matwick, the Rangers’ executive vice president of business operations, said renters already lined up for the available apartments include former Arlington Mayor Richard Greene and Prince of Lebanon restaurant owner Aziz Kovti. Ta.
The location is one of the apartments’ biggest selling points, said Nicole Sonkar, director of marketing for the developer.
According to Google Maps, it’s not only across the street from Choctaw Stadium, but also about a 15-minute walk from Globe Life Field.
The complex’s floor plan pays homage to Texas Rangers heroes such as Adrian Beltre and Padge Rodriguez, as well as Eric Nadel, the voice of the Rangers on radio since the ’70s, which was announced at a media event Tuesday. The name will be given to represent.
Nader said it was an honor to have his name attached to the floor plan.
“I’ve never even had a sandwich with my name on it,” he said at a media event.
New residents can start moving in in January, but construction on the upper floors will continue for some time, Matwick said.
The apartments are in line with larger plans for the city’s future.
Mayor Jim Ross said in his State of the Union address last month that he envisions downtown Arlington and the entertainment district connected by businesses and residences, making the distance between the two more walkable.
This will require more apartments, hotels and businesses in the entertainment district. Already, portions of Choctaw Stadium have been converted into restaurants and bars, including Hideaway, El Tiempo Cantina and Starbucks.
They are located on what was once the street-level wall of the stadium, which served as the home of the Rangers from 1994 to 2019, with more facilities planned in the near future.
