This project, The Belmont Apartments, is the first apartment community in the Dallas/Fort Worth area to receive LEED Silver, according to UDR, Inc., a multifamily REIT that developed the project. Located at 2500 Bennett Avenue, Belmont has 464 units in five buildings. Since its opening, interest from the community has been higher than expected — likely driven by the combination of green aspects and modern design.
