The Waters in Montgomery, Alabama, begins construction

The Waters in Montgomery, Alabama, a 1,250-acre traditional neighborhood development (TND), recently began construction. The project, designed by Placemakers, is a redesign of a TND called Grangemoor that was planned by Duany Plater-Zyberk & Company. About 50 percent of the site will remain open space. A key feature is a 200-acre man-made lake that will provide a focus for parks, pathways, and shoreline drives. The Waters will have 2,400 dwelling units in eight hamlets.
