BRG Apartments is locally owned and operated with experienced property managers. Based in Kenwood, the company owns and manages apartment communities in Greater Cincinnati, Northern Kentucky, Dayton, Lexington, Georgetown and southern Indiana.
The company has grown through purchasing existing apartment communities. Parkway Trails is the first community that BRG built from the ground up.

Brunner said BRG said the company is scouting other potential development sites in Boone County.
“We are looking at additional land in Boone County right now,” he said. “We hope this is the first of many new developments for us here and in the tri-state area.”
