COLUMBIA, SC - CF Evans Construction, one of the Southeast’s leading multifamily general contractors, has been selected by Commonwealth Properties as the general contractor for 2222 Main View, a premier 320-unit apartment community that will redefine luxury living in downtown Columbia, South Carolina.
Located along Columbia’s historic Main Street corridor just one block from downtown, 2222 Main View will feature a mix of studio, one-, two- and three-bedroom residences, along with select live-work units. Designed to complement the energy and authenticity of the city’s urban core, the project will include landscaped courtyards, a resort-style pool and cabanas, two rooftop terraces and clubrooms with skyline views, and a full suite of lifestyle amenities including a coworking suite, fitness club, meditation studio, rooftop dog park, and pet spa.
Construction is now underway, with first move-ins anticipated in March 2027.
“With the help and cooperation of the City of Columbia, Mayor Daniel Rickenmann, Senator Lindsay Graham, the Cottontown and Elmwood Neighborhood Associations, the South Carolina Department of Environmental Services, and HUD we were able to remove a longstanding eyesore to the community and are underway on building 320 new luxury housing units and creating dozens of jobs,” added Jack Middleton, President and Partner of Commonwealth Properties, the developer of 2222 Main View. The property represents Richmond-based Commonwealth Properties’ 14th multifamily development and third in Columbia.
“Main Street has long been the center of Columbia’s story, a place where business, culture, and community meet,” said David Summers, President of CF Evans Construction. “Our team is proud to bring this vision to life alongside Commonwealth Properties and to continue investing in the people and places that make South Carolina thrive.”
