Planning a New Home TownIn 2011, MSP was tapped to provide a master plan and preliminary architectural and engineering design services for Carriage Hill, a mixed-use development in Liberty Township. This new site was designed to include retail boutiques, sidewalk cafes, and other restaurants along with custom and semi-custom single-family homes, villas, and patio homes in four distinct neighborhoods. MSPs landscape architecture for the 80-acre site was critical in preserving natural elements, such as wooded areas, pond, and creeks, which accommodate walking and cycling paths. A dog park and pocket parks were also incorporated into the lively community development.Opposite, clockwise: The renovated clubhouse at Carriage Hill; rendering of the 450-acre site; the community offers a clubhouse and pool.
