A new luxury apartment community, The Marquis, is coming to La Grange, KY

A new luxury apartment community is under construction in La Grange, Kentucky, a growing community 10 miles northeast of Louisville. The new development comes at a time when Oldham County’s population is climbing, and its housing stock remains overwhelmingly built for homeowners, not renters.

“La Grange has grown into one of the most desirable communities in the Louisville region, and we saw an opportunity to bring more of that same quality to the rental market here,” said Tommy Floyd, co-founder and partner of Denton Floyd. “The Marquis is designed to give people a place to live that matches the quality of life this community already offers, with the kind of amenities and design you’d expect from a Class A property.”

Denton Floyd Real Estate Group is developing The Marquis, a 288-unit community featuring one-, two-, and three-bedroom apartments currently under construction on Eden Parkway in La Grange. Located just off I-71, the site is part of Louisville’s MSA and puts residents within easy commuting distance of Louisville’s major job centers while offering the small-town feel and highly rated school district of the Oldham County seat. The project comes as Oldham County continues to rank among the fastest-growing counties in Kentucky, with an estimated 2025 population of 71,661—up 1.04% over the past year and 18.56% since 2010, according to U.S. Census Bureau data.

That growth has outpaced the county’s supply of rental housing. Detached single-family homes make up 87.1% of Oldham County’s roughly 23,800 housing units, while multifamily buildings account for a small share of the market, according to Census Bureau data. The county’s homeownership rate stands well above the national average of 65.2%.

The imbalance mirrors a broader trend across the Louisville metro area, where housing production has not kept pace with job growth. The region added 27,431 jobs between January 2024 and August 2025, but only 7,200 multifamily units were delivered over the same period, according to CoStar and BLS data cited in the Louisville Apartment Association’s 2026 market outlook. Louisville’s multifamily occupancy has held near 93.5% since 2022, and the region’s development pipeline is contracting sharply in 2026 as new deliveries slow, according to the same report.

The Marquis will be a Class A community with resort-style amenities designed to appeal to renters seeking an alternative to single-family homeownership in Oldham County. Planned amenities include a resort-style swimming pool, outdoor grilling and gathering area, playground, fitness center, pet wash and spa, dog park and maker space.

A Hometown Hero Comes Home: Denton Floyd Hosts Will Smith's Banner Dedication at Grocers Ice Lofts

Denton Floyd was proud to host the Greater Louisville Pride Foundation's dedication ceremony honoring Dodgers catcher Will Smith with an official Hometown Heroes banner. The event took place at Grocers Ice Lofts, our adaptive reuse development at 609 E. Main St., where the banner now marks the building's historic façade.

For Denton Floyd, hosting this milestone celebration at Grocers Ice Lofts was a meaningful opportunity to connect one of our signature revitalization projects with a story that speaks to the heart of this community. Grocers Ice Lofts stands as an example of how thoughtful adaptive reuse can preserve Louisville's architectural heritage while creating vibrant, modern spaces, and it was a fitting backdrop for honoring a hometown legend.

Smith's accomplishments on the field are well documented: three World Series championships, three All-Star selections, and a historic performance in the 2025 World Series, where he caught every inning of the series, setting a new record for innings caught by a catcher, and delivered the decisive home run in the 11th inning of Game 7. He recently signed a ten-year contract extension with the Los Angeles Dodgers, affirming his standing as a cornerstone of the organization.

Equally compelling is Smith's connection to Louisville. A graduate of Kentucky Country Day and the University of Louisville, Smith's path from local Little League fields to the College World Series to Major League Baseball reflects the kind of hometown success story that resonates deeply with our community. He was selected 32nd overall by the Dodgers in the 2016 MLB Draft and has since become one of the league's most respected catchers, known for his preparation, leadership, and consistency at the plate.

Reflecting on the honor, Smith shared: "I spent the first 25 years of my life calling Louisville home. From little league games at St. Matthews, growing up at KCD, to attending U of L, I will always be grateful for the people who encouraged and believed in me to achieve my dreams."

Smith's impact extends beyond baseball. In 2021, he and his wife, Cara, founded the Catching Hope Foundation, which supports underprivileged children by building critical leadership and self-advocacy skills. Through the foundation's efforts, the West End School in Louisville received new equipment for its sports programs, a tangible example of the difference community-minded giving can make.

Denton Floyd was honored to provide the setting for this celebration. Supporting events that bring the community together at our properties reflects our broader commitment to investing in Louisville, not just through development, but through the people and stories that make this city exceptional.

The Hometown Heroes banner program, relaunched in 2022 as part of its 20th anniversary, is funded entirely through private donations and aims to establish a lasting "Avenue of Heroes" honoring the city's most celebrated hometown figures. Congratulations to Will Smith on this well-deserved recognition, and thank you to the Greater Louisville Pride Foundation for choosing Grocers Ice Lofts as the site for this special occasion.
