| Legacy Town Center Legacy
Town Center is a mixed-use sustainable high-density town center
located within a 3,000 plus acre suburban business park. This
project aims to introduce urbanism as a new commodity in a landscape
of quintessential suburban character. Legacy Town Center is an
infill development amidst existing corporate campuses and can
be considered a new suburban typology that could become the model
for similar projects nationwide. The challenge was to create
a new realm that responded to, embraced, and transformed an existing
suburban business park, which had been nationally recognized
as a model of commercial master planning, flexibility, and diversity.
The
150-acre project, located in Plano, Texas, will be a combination
of live/work urban fabric that will tie
in with its single use neighbors, providing a pedestrian-scaled,
dynamic and rich set of experiences. At the heart of the development
is a network of interconnected streets and open space that were
designed to encourage walking by residents, daily workers, and
visitors to the area. This development will serve as both the
center of activity for the neighborhood, but also extend beyond
its boundaries to the community as a whole.
