The Vision for the Meadows at Yaphank is one of Sustainability; a community that is planned today, but remains vibrant and active for generations to come.
Development trends across the nation and the world today are focused on creating vibrant places to Live, Work, & Play. Whether you coin the phrase “Smart Growth”, “New Urbanism”, or “Traditional Neighborhood Development”, creating great communities comes down to three pillars, Walkability…Connectivity…and Diversity. When we capture these elements within a community we build sustainability into the framework of our lives.
The Meadows at Yaphank is just that, with a mix of uses; residential, retail, office, hospitality, public parks, and open space. Each one of these uses helps to support the other and become an integral part of the greater community. The Office and Retail uses create much needed jobs for the region, and the Residential component provides purchasing power. Through diverse development and compact building designs, more open space is preserved and the community becomes a vibrant and successful place, combating the elements of “sprawl”.
In the past many municipalities practiced the art of up zoning to minimize the impacts of development. They also encouraged the use of large buffer areas to separate commercial and residential uses. These practices have not always achieved their intended results. By spreading out development and separating uses, they have become the largest contributors to sprawl. As a result, residents must endure longer commutes, fewer public transportation options, and frequent auto trips to do minor errands and shopping. At The Meadows, shopping, dining, entertainment, and employment are all nearby, giving you the freedom to venture out on foot for all of your necessities. Even the public spaces and parks are close by making it easy to get some exercise, relax, or just socialize with friends and neighbors. |
