Pat Emery Spectrum Properties/Emery, Inc. (615) 656-2590 Conceptualized as the defining feature of a seventy acre mixed use development the “Park“ blends private and civic space with business and environmental goals in a manner which adds value through the principles of place. The eleven acre park is bounded by buildings fronting on a network of complete streets which provide open views and a porosity of access for tenets and residents along with the larger community. The plan provides over two miles of interconnected walkways to amenities including a great lawn, a pavilion, a five hundred seat amphitheater and a two acre pond carefully encapsulated into the rolling terrain. Design attention to stormwater resource management incorporates strategies that include fore bays, infiltration and bio-retention as both aesthetic and key environmental features. The park exemplifies Franklin Park’s goal of creating great places for people, within sound economic considerations that provide an ethic of environmental stewardship for future generations.
