Let’s begin with a groundbreaking, its own sort of a done deal. Hillsborough County Commissioners Mark Sharpe and Sandy Murman joined developers in plunging gold-colored shovels into the ground. They celebrated the building start of Citrus Run apartments in Town ‘n’ Country.
The complex, at Waters Avenue and Sheldon Road, will feature 72 one- and two-bedroom units in three two-story buildings. Citrus Run is slated to open in early 2015, with rents ranging from $800 to $1,250 per month.
The Giunta Group is the developer. EWI Construction and Ellison Development Company will handle construction on the 7-acre site.

Belmont Park, built in 1971, consists of 234 units.
