Park should open in two years: BREC has purchased 50.6 acres of land in Central for a new park. The recreation department paid $693,542 for the land at Hooper and Lovett roads in a deal that closed Friday. Plans are to build a Central Community Sports Park with six baseball and softball diamonds and jogging trails.
Big deal: Thompson National Properties paid $39.75 million for the Millennium Towne Center, an upscale Jefferson Highway apartment complex, according to court filings. Thompson, based out of California, purchased the 276-unit complex from the Dinerstein Companies in a deal that closed earlier this month.
