APEX - 1000 ACRE “TRINITY” PROJECT ON THE WAY
Apex, North Carolina. A 1000 acre, 10 year project called Trinity is on the way in Apex. It will be between downtown Apex and Holly Springs and have a dramatic impact on the size and economy of Apex and surrounding areas. It will have as many as 4,000 homes, half a million square feet of commercial space and a hotel. The site, which is bordered by U.S. 1, N.C. 55, and the future I-540, was approved for rezoning at an Apex board meeting on Tuesday evening. Projects of this size don’t just happen overnight. It may take another year for site plans to be drawn up and approved by the Apex planning board.
Those who still think of Apex as a sleepy small town just West of Raleigh aren’t keeping up with the times. In 1990, Apex counted 7,257 residents. In 2006 that number had grown to 26,311. Projections call for that number to be nearly 31,500 by 2011.
