Portsmouth, NH – Fulcrum Associates announced that construction is nearing completion on the Residences at Foundry Place project in Portsmouth, for owner GL Rogers.
The 4-story, 70,000sf building will feature 51 condos, offering a variety of one-, two-, and three-bedroom units. Amenities include a fitness center, clubhouse, and outdoor spaces. The development is located near Portsmouth’s historic downtown, as well as a wide range of restaurants, shopping, and entertainment options.
