DALLAS, Feb. 3, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Behringer Harvard announced today that ground has been broken for the development of Allegro II, the second phase of a luxury multifamily community it acquired in December 2010.

Allegro is located at 15750 Spectrum Drive in Addison Circle, a 70-acre mixed-use development on a site with frontage on Dallas Parkway, a major north/south toll road providing easy access to most areas of the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex.

"Allegro I has been popular with young professionals who appreciate its proximity to major Dallas employment centers, world-class retail centers and numerous dining and entertainment venues," said Mr. Mark T. Alfieri, Chief Operating Officer of Behringer Harvard Multifamily REIT I, Inc. "Allegro II will complement Allegro I by enabling us to continue to offer the same level of quality, amenities and features that have made Allegro I so popular with our residents, while providing flexible floor plan options which we expect will appeal to a broad range of potential Allegro residents. All Allegro II residents also will have access to the community's extensive common-area amenities."

The Allegro community offers residents a resort-style pool and spa with private cabanas and lounge, an outdoor games deck and spin-biking area, two landscaped courtyards, a barbecue area, a state-of-the-art fitness center, a game room with kitchen and billiards table, a tanning bed, and a business center. Development plans for Allegro II include units with luxury finishes similar to Phase I's including brushed nickel hardware, stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, private patios or balconies, and full-size washers and dryers.

Including the second phase of Allegro, the Behringer Harvard Multifamily REIT I, Inc. portfolio consists of investments in 43 multifamily communities in 13 states, comprising 11,295 apartment homes.
