MORRISVILLE, N.C. — Wood Partners and PGIM are planning to break ground this spring on Alta Watkins in the northwest Raleigh suburb of Morrisville. Developers estimate the 357-unit community will be complete by late 2028. Alta Watkins will be comprised of one-, two- and three-bedroom units and amenities that include a resort-style pool, three outdoor courtyards, a pet spa, a fitness center and a podcast lounge. The property also will offer rentable offices for remote work, event space and short-term stay units for guests. Alta Watkins represents Wood Partners’ third project in the Raleigh-Durham area in the past year. Most recently, the firm broke ground on two Durham projects — the 336-unit Alta Bethpage in June 2025 and the 312-unit Alta Durham Summit in September 2025.
