"Downtown Columbia has been undergoing an amazing transformation," said Robert C. Kettler, Kettler Chairman and CEO. "Together with The Metropolitan, mall expansion, and the arrival of Whole Foods, Phase 2 will continue the evolution of Downtown Columbia into one of the most sought-after residential addresses in the Baltimore-Washington region."

Phase 2 will provide a variety of floorplans, including studio, one-, two-, and three-bedroom units, many of which include dens. All units will feature high-end finishes such as quartz countertops and stainless steel appliances. The amenity-rich community will boast a state-of-the-art fitness center and indoor sports court, lush courtyards with pools, a pet wash station, and indoor and outdoor lounge areas.

"We look forward to delivering the next phase of Metropolitan Downtown Columbia," said Jim Turner, vice president at Kettler. "Following the success of The Metropolitan, we are proud to continue working with CBG to execute an equally high-quality community."

"We are excited to be building another project with Kettler and Howard Hughes and to help build on the momentum of The Metropolitan Downtown Columbia project we completed in 2015," said Keith Anderson, president at CBG. "Our team has worked diligently with Kettler and Howard Hughes over the past year as this project has developed from a concept to what will be a vibrant new addition to the Columbia Town Center."

Targeting LEED Silver certification, Phase 2 will feature energy-saving appliances, bicycle parking spaces, car charging stations, environmentally friendly building materials, and a green roof.

In addition to The Metropolitan Downtown Columbia, CBG's recent Kettler portfolio includes: Village at Leesburg, a 335-unit mixed-use community in Loudoun County, Virginia; The Metropolitan Rockville Town Center, a 275-unit luxury apartment community in Montgomery County, Maryland scheduled for completion in November 2017; and Highgate at Metropolitan Mile, a 395-unit transit-oriented community in McLean, Virginia scheduled for completion in December 2017.
