Favorite place to explore in CityWay?
He really loves seeing the art on the walls, and we really love to take cute pictures of him with it. Another place he really likes is the outdoor barbecue area. We brought him there last weekend, and he loves seeing the neighbors and the other dogs. Since he doesn't have all his shots yet, he doesn't go to the pet areas. However, I'm pretty sure he is super excited to go there because he keeps admiring it from the window.

How long have you lived here, in what floor plan and favorite place to chill in the house?
We have been living here for only 3 months, but we are enjoying it very much. We are in a Saffron Townhome. His favorite place to chill is the living room, we did a little area for him over there with a bed, a lot of toys, etc. He loves it!

Favorite activity?
He loves to run around. When we let him out of his crate he starts running though our living room. It's the cutest thing ever!!!

Thank you for sharing! Slinky sure is cute and we can't wait until he is old enough to try out our two new dog parks!! Interested in featuring your pet? Email [email protected]!

1. How long have you lived here, in what floor plan and what's your favorite place to chill in the house?
I have lived here for 1 month and love it! My dad tells me we live in the Onyx floorplan. I’m not sure why it’s called that, but it has a bunch of space for me to run! My favorite place to chill out is my puppy bed with my toys.

2. Favorite place to explore in CityWay?
I love walking around the neighborhood and meeting all the friendly people and dogs. I really like checking out the flowerbeds near the busy pool! I think my dad needs to get me one of those!

3. Favorite toy and why?
My favorite toy is my white dinosaur Nylabone because it never breaks no matter how much I chew on it!

Thanks Zoe for stopping by to share with us. We promise to share our pool with you at our end-of-season event!

Price

The most important detail when searching is price point. You don’t want to get too far along in the decision-making process to realize an apartment home is out of your budget. To avoid this, check with our leasing team to make sure our apartment homes are in your price range.

Size

Finding the right sized apartment with enough square footage for your lifestyle is very important when moving to an apartment home. The number of square feet helps determine if your furniture will fit, if there’s enough room for your pets, or even if you can go for a smaller home. 

Floor Plan

Your perfect floor plan is out there! Your floor plan helps determine the type of kitchen, how many bedrooms, how many bathrooms, how big is the living space, if you have a balcony/patio and more. These details shape your next apartment home and help to make your space your own. Our apartment homes feature unique, spacious floor plans just for you.

Location

The location of your future home may be flexible but can be a very big decision. Your apartment home location determines your commute to work, restaurants, and shops. Location even effects your drive to friends and family. Ask our team about the perks of our convenient location today.

Amenities

Our apartment home community features extensive amenities for our residents. The amenities package in an apartment home is an added perk to living in a professionally managed community. You get the perks of our amenities along with the experience when you choose our community.

Should you need any help making your apartment home search easier, please feel free to contact our team any time to discuss whether our community is the best fit for you.

International street artists Nick Walker and Kelsey Montague are each adding their personal flair to the neighborhood being developed by Buckingham Cos.

Walker, from Bristol, Great Britain, has been involved in street art since the early 1980s. Denver-based artist Montague, 33, is younger and newer to the game than the 50-year-old Walker, but a couple of her murals have gone viral on Instagram thanks to pop star Taylor Swift.

Swift posed in front of two Montague murals that both featured a pair of wings—a Montague signature. One was Montague’s first mural, a pair of angel wings, painted in 2014 in New York City. The other was of butterfly wings painted in Nashville, Tennessee, in April 2019, that Swift commissioned and used to promote a new single and video.

Montague’s work in Indianapolis, which she completed last week, consists of two pieces. One includes two pairs of butterfly wings with hidden images in them relevant to the Indianapolis community. That one, 15 feet high and 30 feet wide, is along Delaware Street, across from The Alexander Hotel.

The other mural, 20 feet by 20 feet, features a flock of fireflies. It’s behind Qdoba and Acuity on Delaware Street.

“When people see my work, I always want it to be a gift,” Montague said. “I want to inspire people not only to use social media in a positive way, but to share what lifts them and to show something that’s inspiring to their communities.”

Walker, known for his graffiti-inspired art, is painting a 140-foot mural on the east side of the 14-story CityWay Tower. The nearly completed tower has a parking garage on floors 1-6, 70 apartments on floors 7-13 and seven penthouse apartments on floor 14.

Walker’s mural will be visible for miles from the east, including from interstates 65 and 70. The mural includes Vandal, a Charlie Chaplin-like character he created in 2006. As the story goes, Vandal jumps from city to city, no one knowing who he is or where he came from. He spreads a message of love and pours colorful paint on famous buildings and monuments.

“For something on a grand scale, which pretty much will be seen for miles, it has to be something that’s good for everybody,” Walker said. “It has to be a universal concept, not just be about me.”
 

Walker works on the mural at night, roughly from 10 p.m. to 3 a.m. He paints the concrete wall in the dark so he can use a projector to display an image on the building that he uses to guide him.

Walker worked on the first phase of the CityWay project in 2012, painting about 20 smaller pieces featuring Vandal in the garage connected to The Alexander. He said the goal was to introduce Vandal to the public in Indianapolis.

This time around, Walker has the opportunity to paint tower mural and around 20 more smaller pieces in the garage below the tower. His current project title for the paintings in the garage is, “The Mutations.”

Walker’s goal with his art is to provoke emotion in people, whether they love the work or hate it. If someone stops to take a look at his art, he has done the job properly, Walker said.

Jim Smith, Buckingham’s creative marketing director, said the second phase of CityWay will be mostly finished in October. The project includes about 400 apartment units, nearly 29,000 square feet of retail space and 19,000 square feet of office space

The first thing to be finished will be the CityWay tower in September.

Smith said existing CityWay apartments exceed at least a 90% occupancy rate, reaching as high as 98% at times. He said he expects the same demand for the new apartments. Including the CityWay tower, four new apartment buildings will be added.

The project also includes a CVS Pharmacy at the corner of Delaware and South Street, and a Taxman Brewing Co. restaurant just north of the CVS on Delaware.

Smith said CityWay is close to finding an office user for the 10,000-square-foot office space, however 20,000 square feet of retail space is still available that could be used by two to three tenants.

See below for the locations of the murals.

Molly (right) stopped by to answer a few questions. Check them out below!

1. How long have you lived at CityWay, what floorplan did you choose and why?
I have been part of the CityWay community for over 3 years with Salon Lofts, but moved into the apartments a little over a year ago. I have really loved being part of the progress and seeing the expansions happening around the campus. I chose the one bedroom with a balcony, The Azure!! I HAVE to have space to sit outside and read and of course my mini plant jungle out there brings me joy!

2. What do you love most about the CityWay community?
I love the people! I couldn't ask for a better group of people to share this space with. My business partner Allison Rutledge is basically my sister, the staff at CityWay has become part of my everyday existence. Doug and Jason are my dudes and make sure the place is always beautiful and clean. Ash/Danielle/Justeen, all the ladies – have been so helpful and really care for the residents and campus with great passion. I have really enjoyed teaching yoga on Sundays and getting to know even more of my neighbors, as well as being able to have them, not only as neighbors, but clients and friends.

3. What is/are your favorite Indianapolis event(s)?
Honestly, there is so much to do this is hard… highlights this year: Zoobilation, Summer Nights at Newfields, I love the Dugout in Fountain Square, the Farmers Market every Wednesday. Nesso!!! (the resident events are so fun). Wreath making with Urban Contessa,  and Miracle on South was a really cool experience.  I look forward to doing more and meeting more people. Big thanks to the team of people that make this community a home!

Thank you, Molly, for all of your kind words! We are very thankful to have you as a resident and a business partner!

He may be small, but he sure is spunky! Read all about him below.

What is his favorite toy?
Sebastian loves destroying squeaky toys!

What is his best personality trait?
His fearlessness!! With the exception of the microwave timer and other things that beep, he's not afraid of anything!

How long have you lived here, in what floor plan and where is his favorite spot to lounge?
We've lived here for about three years. We currently live in an Amethyst floor plan. Sebastian loves lounging outside on the rooftop terrace or on the balcony — wherever he can catch the warmest sunbeams!

Thank you for sharing about Sebastian. We always love seeing him waddle around the community!

The post Pet of the Month: June appeared first on The Residences at CityWay Blog.

This fun-loving couple sat down with us to share a little bit about them!

How long have you lived at CItyWay? What floor plan did you choose and why?
We've been happily living at CityWay for 3.5 years. We initially chose the Onyx floor plan because of its large open living space and all of the natural light that the corner unit provides. We recently moved to an Olivine floor plan to take advantage of the extra space and its huge rooftop patio with a city view!

What is your favorite thing about the city of Indianapolis?
We love all of the great restaurants, bars, breweries and sporting events that are all within walking distance. Our favorite thing to do is attend Pacers games and we really enjoy having Bankers Life Fieldhouse just steps away from our home at CityWay.

What is one thing no one knows about you?
While we went to the same college at the same time (and had the same major), we actually never met until a few years after we graduated!

Thanks for sharing and thank you for bringing your adorable pup, Lilly!

This spunky young fellow stopped by the office to answer a few questions.

1. How long have you lived at CItyWay and what floor plan did you choose? Where is Dash's favorite spot at home?
We have lived at CityWay for a little over a year and live in the Blush floor plan. It is a 2 bedroom, 2 story layout. Dash's favorite spots are on the couch where he can look out the window or out on the balcony.

2. What is his favorite toy and why?
His favorite toy is either a ball or a bone. The ball is for whenever he wants to play (which is all the time) and the bone is for a rare occasion when he is tired but still wants something to do.

3. What is his favorite CityWay activity?
His favorite activity to do is go to the dog area when it is warm enough (for me), chase bunnies when we go out for morning or evening walks, be pet by people at CityWay and "talk" to other dogs.

Thank you, Dash and owner Neil, for sharing with us! If you are interested in having your furry friend being our next Pet of the Month, contact Danielle today!
