Cypressbrook develops the Ariza brand in emerging markets where people want to live, and in particular markets that have a healthy expanding job market fueling the influx of growth. The developer noted that Huntsville has been a market that they have been watching for a few years given the influx of jobs from major employers and the predicted growth for the city. Huntsville was also voted as the #1 Best City To Live In The US for 2022-2023, by US News & World Report.

” We began underwriting options in Huntsville, Alabama about four years ago. Given the exceptional job creation and being a highly desirable community, the market checked all the boxes in which to build under a high quality, Ariza branded project.” — Daniel Mota, Development Principal of Cypressbrook Company

There were key factors which lead to the selection of the site according to Cypressbrook, “We felt that its proximity to major retail centers, major highways, Cummings Research Park, and other area major employers provided a unique opportunity to provide a convenient housing option for Huntsville’s booming population”. Here’s the quick rundown.
