Village Center Phase I (Bella-Terra at Harbour Pointe) is based on the concept for developing a cohesive community following the principles of new urbanism. The design includes a diversity of building types and uses, street design that emphasizes the pedestrian, and a focus on the village center to support community activity.
Varieties of housing types are provided in the plan, including flats, townhomes, and live/work units. The live/work units are focused on the street fronts where parallel parking, street trees, and raised-textured paving slow traffic and create a pedestrian friendly environment.
A rich mix of businesses including medical-dental, accounting, mortgage, financial and personal services is blended with shops, restaurants, and a coffee/juice bar to create a vital community center. This mix of uses with the residential and live-work apartments encourages pedestrian activity and interaction among residences
The Camden is phase II of the Village Center in Mukilteo, Washington. The project has 103 for sale townhomes in nine buildings. The townhome entries face public sidewalks and streets with rear garages shielded from view. Front entry porches are just steps away from the neighborly streetscape access to the phase I Village Center which contains shops, restaurants, and commercial spaces.
