๐ก Reynolds Cottages Workforce Housing Project Moves Forward!
Big news for Brunswickโs future! The Reynolds Cottages Workforce Housing Development โ a vital project designed to bring much-needed affordable homeownership options to our community โ is hitting major milestones.
Forward Brunswick has officially signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the City of Brunswick, solidifying a partnership to make this vision a reality. Site work is underway with infrastructure construction beginning and a 12-week timeline in place โ even coming in under the original budget! Utilities are coordinated, permits are filed, and local real estate pros Julie Martin of Gardner Kim Coastal Realty and Jenny Lee of DeLoach Sothebyโs are gearing up to list the 21 homes for pre-sale starting July 1st.

If everything stays on track, vertical construction kicks off August 1st, with homes ready in as little as 120 days after. ๐๏ธ
Reynolds Cottages will provide high-quality, traditionally styled homes just blocks from Brunswickโs waterfront and downtown โ a huge step forward for those who work in our community and want to live here too.
Stay tuned for more updates as these homes begin to rise and our neighborhood grows stronger!

Built in just a few weeks โ yes, really โ this new space is already one of the best outdoor dining experiences in all of Brunswick. Picture this: brunch in the sunshine, sailboats gliding by, locals pedaling along the waterfront โ it doesnโt get much better.
The vibe? Relaxed but lively. Thereโs often live music playing out back, and service thatโll make you feel like a regular, even on your first visit. And if you want to get even closer to the action, grab a seat at the bar window โ easily one of the coolest spots to kick back with a drink.
Whether youโre brunching, lunching, or just sipping something cold, Bubba Garciaโs has seriously upped the outdoor dining game. ๐๐น
