RST Residences is a planned development in the Places29-North Community Advisory Committee that has been approved by the Albemarle Board of Supervisors. The 330-unit community is going through the review process. It will be built at the site of the former Ridgewood Mobile Home Park. [1]

Review process
The request was for a rezoning on 19.5 acres from R-1 to Planned Residential Development to build 254 apartments and 78 townhouses. The original request was for 370 units but that was reduced following a March appearance before the Planning Commission. A deferral was requested after a long presentation coordinated by the Forest Lakes Community Association in opposition to the project. [2]
The developers returned with a project that increased the number of units that would be made affordable to households below a certain income level. In all, 190 apartments will be provided. They also shrank the unit count to 332, with 254 apartments and 78 townhouse units. [1]
