HARVEST AT BLUE RIDGE MASTER PLAN
Harvest
at Blue Ridge
Beautiful. Walkable. Livable.
MASTER PLAN: OVERVIEW
Designed with community in mind
The master plan for Harvest at Blue Ridge was crafted with community at its heart. It offers ample space for community gathering, from its vibrant neighborhood center to the green spaces tying the neighborhood together. The concept was informed by community input - neighbors, nearby businesses, and local stakeholders were all given a voice through our design charrette process.
Natural beauty & common amenities
Harvest at Blue Ridge is designed around common amenities which will allow residents and visitors to enjoy the property’s breathtaking natural beauty. The existing pond will be rehabilitated and upfitted for recreation. Pocket parks and courts are found throughout the community, offering ample gathering space for residents and visitors. A vibrant neighborhood center at the front of the property will provide residents a unique retail experience within the historic Murray Cider Co. structures.

Built to a livable scale
The infrastructure of Harvest at Blue Ridge is designed to lay lightly upon the land and to facilitate pleasant travel throughout the neighborhood. This development will avoid mass grading and uses green fingers rather than detention ponds for its storm water management. Pedestrian pathways, safe streets, and attractive streetscapes allow for ease-of-travel, whether by foot, bicycle or vehicle.
