“The NRP Group is proud to deepen our partnership with Brooks through this development, a landmark residential community that will inject fresh housing options and economic vitality into the rapidly evolving Southside,” said Jason Arechiga, Senior Vice President of Development at NRP Group. “Artana at Brooks underscores our continued commitment to San Antonio, providing high-quality multi-family living that meets the diverse needs of this dynamic region.”

Located at 3838 Goliad Road in the Brooks region, Artana at Brooks offers one-, two-, and three-bedroom floor plans. In-unit features include quartz countertops, luxury vinyl plank flooring and flat panel cabinets. Outside, residents can enjoy private yards and garages. Public community amenities include a dog park, green trail, outdoor gathering space, along with 10 acres worth of retail space soon to be developed by Brooks.

Positioned within the East Central Independent School District, Artana offers pedestrian trail connectivity, access to outdoor recreation, and proximity to the future Arboretum San Antonio. These amenities reflect Brooks’ commitment to creating walkable, connected communities where residents can enjoy greater access to nature, recreation, and everyday conveniences.

Artana at Brooks is the third multifamily housing community developed as part of the partnership between Brooks and The NRP Group and the first to extend beyond Brooks’ original campus footprint. Its opening reflects Brooks’ broader strategy to expand quality development and economic opportunity throughout the surrounding region.

The Brooks region has experienced incredible growth in recent years, with household income rising 36% and the unemployment rate dropping 4%. With more than two dozen new restaurants in the surrounding area, expanding employment opportunities, and major infrastructure investments, including the $44 million IH-37 and SE Military Drive interchange improvements, the area continues to offer residents greater connectivity, convenience, and quality of life.

“Artana represents an exciting milestone as Brooks continues to expand beyond our original footprint,” said Leo Gomez, Brooks President & CEO. “Our vision has always been about more than development. It’s about creating connected communities where people have access to quality housing, jobs, recreation, and opportunity. We’re proud to see this continued investment in San Antonio’s South Side and the positive impact it will have on families for generations to come.”

As the Brooks region continues to grow, new residential developments like Artana will help support a projected population of more than 10,000 residents and continued employment growth, reinforcing the area’s role as a thriving economic and residential destination.
