THE SEABOARD APARTMENTS

Named for the Railroad, Positioned on the Trail

The Gainesville-Hawthorne Trail is one of Florida's premier multi-use trails — a 16-mile converted rail corridor stretching from Gainesville east to Hawthorne, passing through the Paynes Prairie Preserve State Park and some of the most biologically diverse natural landscape in North Central Florida. The Seaboard Apartments takes its name from the Seaboard Coast Railroad, whose tracks originally cut through this neighborhood and were later converted into the trail network that defines the area today. Living at The Seaboard means having direct, walkable access to this trail system from your front door. Cyclists, hikers, birders, and nature enthusiasts can step outside and immediately connect to miles of off-road trail without loading a car. For residents who choose their address based on outdoor access, The Seaboard's location on SE Fifth Avenue in Gainesville is one of the most naturally connected apartment addresses in the city.
