A 276-unit apartment complex is under construction on Aberdeen Orchard Way.
Gibsonia Gardens is a multifamily development on 34.353 acres at 1240 Aberdeen Orchard Way in Lakeland. The project includes 276 apartment units, a clubhouse, and a pool cabana.
Permits show construction activity underway: a pool cabana permit was closed with a certificate of occupancy in December 2024, and fire-sprinkler work on the clubhouse was completed in mid-2025. A site plan modification approved in September 2025 adjusted sidewalk layout, clubhouse elevation, drainage, and added a retaining wall along the wetland.
