Shadow Glen is located on Glenwood Drive, just east of Thomas Road, with immediate access south to Interstate 20, the primary east to west thoroughfare throughout the Monroe Metropolitan area.  The impressive employment prospects in the immediate area, combined with good schools and easy access to major thoroughfares, create a unique advantage for Shadow Glen residents desiring to live close to their places of employment, shopping and recreation.

Albert Lord III, CEO of Lexerd, said, “We are very pleased to add to our portfolio a property in a city that is home to many Fortune 100 companies. We are impressed by the demand for well-located apartment communities in West Monroe, as evidenced by the strong average occupancy rate of local rental comps. We believe the city’s growing labor force, low unemployment rate and steady population growth are characteristics that we look for in all of our multi-family acquisitions.  We plan to invest in both exterior and interior improvements and will explore these potential enhancements in the near term.”
