Flaherty & Collins Properties, alongside City of East Peoria Mayor John Kahl and community members, broke ground on the $65 million mixed-use community featuring luxury residential apartments and commercial space in the developing Levee District. The community includes 219 luxury apartments, 10,000 square feet of commercial retail and a total of 276 parking spaces to accommodate an increase in residents and visitors.
The mixed-use development is located at the corner of Clock Tower Boulevard and West Washington Street. The Blutowne community is set to be the premier residential element coinciding with the City of East Peoria’s intentional growth in the Levee District.
Various layouts for the multi-family apartments include studio, one-bedroom, one-bedroom with a den, and two-bedroom floorplans with the average space per unit being 898 square feet. Features and amenities for the apartment communities include a fitness facility, meeting space, saltwater pool and adjacent cabanas, rooftop sky lounge and bar, parking garage, LED lighting, stainless steel appliances, full-size washer and dryer and private balconies.
Flaherty & Collins Properties expects to welcome the first residential and commercial tenants for phase two in the Spring 2025. The anticipated completion for the full development is Fall 2025. Additional project renderings can be found here.
