After some design adjustments, the developer of a a proposed 85-unit apartment complex that would target growing populations in Boise began to file for building permits.
Developer Scott McCormack, of Boise-based American Pacific Advisors LLC, submitted his original plan for Limelight Village in February 2020, but he delayed construction because of the COVID-19 pandemic. Now, he plans to build four three-story apartment buildings with 85 units in all. They would be located on a 2.3-acre site at 8306 W. State St., west of Gary Lane.
“Limelight Village is specifically planned to target the growing population of independent millennial, Gen-X and baby boomer professional single and couple households in Boise and the Treasure Valley looking to live affordably, in close and in style,” McCormack wrote in the application.
The project is now proposed to include 56 one-bedroom units and 29 two-bedroom units, according to documents filed with the city. The apartments would be rented at 10% below market value.

The Boise Farmers Market canceled its walk-through market on Saturday, Sept. 25, and instead encouraged the public to use its drive-thru market.
The market reversed course after it had announced it would require vendors and customers to show proof of COVID-19 vaccination or a negative test within 48 hours to attend the market. Mayor Lauren McLean instituted new protocols for permitted events.
“We will be working closely with the city to find a plan that honors our commitment to safety, public health and supports our farmers, and makers,” the market said in a news release Wednesday, Sept. 22. “We will continue to assess our plans and communicate with our customers about what they can expect moving through the month of October, which will mark the end of our regular season.”
