Sea Island Land Development (SILD) was selected by The Garrett Companies to perform the complete site development for Northside Drive Apartments, an 18-acre multifamily residential development located along Northside Drive in North Charleston, South Carolina. Developed by Echelon North Charleston, LLC / The Garrett Companies, this project will feature approximately 266 residential units across five apartment buildings, along with a swimming pool, clubhouse and leasing office, maintenance building, and dog park.
SILD’s scope of work includes land clearing, excavating, grading, public utilities, storm drainage installation, concrete work, and asphalt paving. The project also features the installation of a StormTech underground stormwater management system and two stormwater ponds to support the development’s drainage needs. Working alongside project engineer Kimley-Horn, our team is responsible for preparing the site and installing the essential infrastructure needed to support the new residential community.
One of the project’s primary challenges involves coordinating storm drainage structures, roof drains, and yard inlet elevations with ongoing building construction and sitework. Additional considerations include retaining wall coordination, roadway access, utility testing, and municipal approvals, requiring careful planning and construction sequencing throughout the development.
Construction began in March 2026 and is scheduled for completion in April 2027, highlighting SILD’s experience delivering comprehensive multifamily site development projects throughout the South Carolina Lowcountry.
