Groundbreaking Ceremony: The Manning Apartments at Barkley Village and a New Urban Core in Bellingham, WA

Bellingham’s newest multi-family community has broken ground! MG2, alongside Talbot Group, Realogics Sotheby’s International Realty, and City of Bellingham celebrated The Manning‘s groundbreaking earlier last month.

Located within the master planned Barkley Village development, The Manning is a new 171-unit residential complex. The building includes a gym amenity space and a large commercial space on the ground floor. Building on the master plan’s goals for a true urban village, the development seeks to draw in the community and add vibrancy to the area. Residents have direct access to dining, shopping, and entertainment options from a farmer’s market to a movie theater.

“MG2 is honored and excited to break ground on The Manning, the gateway project of the Barkley Village master plan. This building has been designed to show resiliency and timelessness, reflecting the Talbot Group’s own roots and commitment to Bellingham and the Barkley Village community.” – Jooyeol Oh, MG2 Principal

MG2 Architect Rebecca Thompson joined the project team on-site to celebrate this milestone.
