This article is about the 2016 residential development in Lakeview, for the former public housing project downtown, see Metropolitan Gardens.

Metropolitan Apartments is a planned 315-unit, $40 million multifamily development on Block 441, between 29th and 30th Street South and 6th and 7th Avenues in Lakeview.

The project is being developed by John Gilbert of the Bomasada Group of Houston, Texas. The architectural design was commissioned from Lord Aeck Sargent Architects of Atlanta, Georgia. Originally proposed as a four-story, 254 unit project, the developer expanded the proposal to five stories and 315 units in 2015. The apartment building wraps around the offices of Mason Dillard insurance adjusters and Dobbins-Harville Realty at 2916 and 2918 7th Avenue South which the developers could not acquire. No retail or office space is planned as part of the project, which is expected to be completed in Spring 2017.
