The Tree!

We are fortunate to have a beautiful and mature silver maple tree on our site. Our architect and engineer were instructed to locate the buildings and design the courtyard and infastructure in such a way that would keep us from having to tear it down. So far the tree has survived construction and we are determined for it to become a natural amenity for the entire community and a symbol for how simple and thoughtful green design can be.
