David Conner & Associates was selected to implement
an aggressive environmentally sensitive site planning and landscape
architectural design for this 24-acre mixed-use development. The final
plan proposed reorganizing the original site plan so that storm retention
sites located throughout the property could be combined into three large
natural restoration sites. Commercial development was placed around
the restoration ponds to provide enjoyable views and comfortable outdoor
seating and walks for the neighboring residents. Native plantings of
Slash Pine, Cabbage Palm, Fakahatchee Grass, and Spartina, were place
in and around the storm ponds. The result is a people friendly natural
environment that hosts native and migratory birds. |
