Preservation of the wetland system enhances connections with nature. The extensive <br /> trail system meanders organically throughout the site allowing one to appreciate the open views and <br /> wildlife. <br /> Both street and trail connections are created to neighbors, to nature and to the surrounding <br /> community.
