Design Philosophy

The design philosophy of Park Ridge integrates the use of traditional streets and defined open spaces to create a human scale. Parks and public gathering spaces forge a strong sense of the public realm inspired, in part, by the influence of Southwestern Architecture and the traditional Central Plaza – the social center for Park Ridge. Architectural theme continuity throughout the community establishes a sense of identity and place.

Vision:

To create a model urban village that offers a mix of residential, retail and healthcare services in a walkable, pedestrian-friendly, resort-style setting.

Goals:

Community Focused

  • Developing a plan for open spaces and a central plaza for community gatherings and events
  • Outdoor spaces and features connected by walking trails, sidewalks and pedestrian crossings
  • Integrating into the surrounding neighborhoods, sharing open space, boulevards, bike trails and walking paths

Lifestyle Oriented

  • A mix of uses and amenities that nurture lifestyle activities
  • Pedestrian Friendly for easy access to walking, cycling and enjoying parks and recreation
  • Planned community activities and events focused around a central plaza, parks and retail venues

Sustainability

  • Develop with a set of sustainable designs and standards
  • State-of-the-art storm water retention in parks and open spaces
  • Encourage use of solar design and energy conservation
