Kalikow Group opens 236-unit Woodland Trail

The Kalikow Group, on behalf of KEP LaGrange, LLC, and EYC Companies, held a ribbon cutting ceremony to celebrate the grand opening of Woodland Trail, a newly completed 236-unit, garden-style apartment complex on 20 acres. The event brought together prominent local government officials including mayor Bobby Traylor, city councilman Nick Woodson, Troup county manager Todd Tentler and Troup county commissioners Buck Davis and Richard English. "We are proud to officially open the Woodland Trail apartment complex," said Edward Kalikow, president and CEO of The Kalikow Group. "Woodland Trail will play a critical role in housing executives and workers from Kia's new auto facility. We are so pleased to be able to fulfill the crucial need for quality affordable housing in the area." "We are grateful to the city of LaGrange and Troup County for their foresight in fostering smart growth and business development -- including new housing opportunities -- in anticipation of the growing demand they are now experiencing," said Ellis Coleman, president of EYC Companies. "We feel lucky to be opening our doors here in LaGrange on the cusp of an explosion of growth and at a time when news in other markets is not so positive."
