Carter Breaks Ground on Creekside at The Grounds: Thoughtfully Designed Student Living in Winston-Salem, NC

Carter and Front Street Capital have officially broken ground on Creekside at The Grounds, a purpose-built student apartment community and the first residential project within the dynamic new mixed-use development in Winston-Salem, North Carolina.

Creekside reflects Carter’s continued leadership in delivering best-in-class multifamily experiences across the country. Designed for upperclassmen and graduate students, Creekside will feature 229 fully furnished units and 521 beds, along with private bathrooms, modern finishes, and a full suite of lifestyle amenities including study lounges, a fitness center, and a resort-style pool.

Strategically located adjacent to Wake Forest University campus, alongside the newly remediated Silas Creek, and directly connected to the broader Grounds district via a new multi-use trail, Creekside brings together thoughtful design, community connectivity, and walkable access to the university, event venues, and retail village.

“This is the first of several transformative projects that will define the future of The Grounds,” said Adam Parker, Senior Vice President at Carter. “With Creekside, we’re delivering a high-quality student living experience that anchors a much larger vision for this community.”

Creekside joins Carter’s robust multifamily portfolio, which includes developments like Prospect Lake Wire in Lakeland, Florida; Radius at the Banks in downtown Cincinnati; Aston at City Springs in Sandy Springs, Georgia; and the seven-property Story Apartments brand. The project is being developed in partnership with Front Street Capital, Kayne Anderson Real Estate, and Truist Financial, and is scheduled to open in Fall 2027.
