THE EAGLE MARKET PLACE TEAM
Every Eagle Market Place team member came into the project with considerable experience and a respect for the importance of the task at
hand. Thanks to our partnership with Mountain Housing Opportunities—a longtime Asheville client—we successfully completed a
challenging, unpredictable project with aggressive schedules and strict deadlines.
OVERVIEW
Eagle Market Place is a six-story, cast-in-place concrete and wood
framed apartment recently constructed for Mountain Housing
Opportunities and Eagle Market Streets Development Corporation. The
building will include 62 units of mixed-income housing above one floor
of retail.
Three historical buildings bordering Eagle Market Place (The Dr.
Collette Building, The Del Cardo Building, and the Ritz Building) were
incorporated into the project in the historically-significant Asheville
neighborhood known as “The Block.”
Of the three buildings, two were preserved, with renovations to the
outside and upfits to the interior to provide office space for the
apartment complex and retail space. An additional section of new
construction was added to provide more retail space. The last of the
three buildings had its interiors renovated, but the facade was saved,
offering commercial office space to potential tenants.

PLACE
IMPACT
In the 1940’s, The Block was home to over 40 African-American owned
businesses, and Eagle Market Place is still committed to that same cultural
diversity, honoring the roots it grew from. This project is expected to be the
new anchor to help revitalize downtown Asheville’s historically African-
American business district.
After it opened, Eagle Market’s 30 affordable and 32 market rate apartments
quickly filled up. Leaf, a well-known non-profit organization local to Asheville,
is the largest of three new tenants in the Del Cardo office building.
