According to WMBF, "the Mason Myrtle Beach Apartment complex is expected to be located off Wild Iris Drive and Grissom Parkway. Landscape Architect, Greg Duckworth said this new complex will be an extension of the south end of the Grand Dunes community. “Well now that they got the approval of the Community Appearance Board, the developer will be engaging with the architect and the civil engineer to go deeper into the final designs,” Duckworth said.
