The Story
The 700 acres of the existing prison site and adjacent state-owned land are redeveloped in a mix of uses that includes lower-density office and retail, as well as a mix of housing and some open space. Uses are generally separated and designed to be convenient to access by car but not by foot, bicycle, or transit.
