New riverfront apartment complex planned near Temple Terrace

A 330-unit apartment complex is set to break ground, along the Hillsborough River, bringing new residential options to the Temple Terrace area of Tampa.

Impact Development Partners has acquired a 32-acre site, at 6502 E. Sligh Avenue, and plans to develop the property, known as River Hills, with one-, two- and three-bedroom units, across 11 three-story buildings.

“The area is primed for quality workforce housing,” said Mark Eilers, executive vice president at Colliers, who helped broker the transaction.

River Hills will feature resort-style amenities and aims to serve professionals working at nearby employers, including the University of South Florida, Moffitt Cancer Center and Busch Gardens.

IDP expects to have the first units available, by early 2026.
