A Breath of Fresh Air

Nature is not just part of the plan. It is the plan: a new home community designed around and between parks, trails, gardens, native landscapes and wildlife corridors. A literal breath of fresh air is outside every door. What that means to the health benefits of residents, both human and non-human, is immeasurable. Now and for years to come.

Wildlife Corridor

A WALK ON THE WILD SIDE

Like the rest of us, animals have places to go. We make sure they get there with a thoughtfully designed wildlife corridor that help native species, including bobcats, coyotes, mule deer, mountain lions, gray foxes, striped skunks, Virginia opossums, raccoons, brush rabbits, ground squirrels, turkey vultures, great egret, great blue heron, California quail, American kestrels, red-tailed hawks, red-shouldered hawks, Cooper’s hawks, golden eagles, barn owls, and great horned owls get from place to place without human (or highway) interruption.

Landscapes that feel native

The landscapes surrounding the community inform the landscapes within the community. We’re not just talking about the use of native plants and grasses but the incorporation of geological landforms. Rise neighborhood, for instance, features a corridor inspired by a nearby limestone canyon.
