River Park – Residential Architecture
The River Park Residential Framework Plan refines the community design principles delineated in the Southport Design Guidelines to create a well-designed, pedestrian-oriented residential community. The plan also proposes residential architecture that complements the community’s natural and programmed open spaces. The recommended architectural character promotes visual interest, variety, and high-quality detailing, thereby creating inviting neighborhoods. In addition, the plan offers a range of residential densities and housing types to create a diverse, yet unified neighborhood street character.
