Plans call for a \u00a0so-called \u201ce-urban\u201d architectural design, meaning a slightly higher density than traditional garden-style communities. The unit and community finishes and amenities, however, are designed to be of superior quality for market in order to provide a high-end alternative to garden-style living. The community will include surfaced parked.<\/p>\n<p>The developers expect that the design and the amenities combined with the favorable location directly adjacent to Central Florida Research Park will attract <em>\u201c<\/em>the area\u2019s young and upwardly mobile residents,\u201d according to a press release issued about the project.
