Widely recognized for its open-space preservation and sustainability,
Prairie
Crossing represents an integrated system of residential development
and agricultural production.
The Prairie Crossing plan incorporates 317 home sites within a 668
acre development. The land is gently rolling and devoted to primarily
crop production. The Village Center creates a neighborhood with intimate
streetscape and rear access to homes separating pedestrian from vehicular
traffic.
Approximately 60% of the site is planned as open space to create and
support the quality of the community. Preserved and sustainable elements
of the environment include: 150 acres of agricultural lands and community
gardens as well as 22 acres of lakes, wetlands, meadows and prairies
linked by 15 miles of trails.
This project demonstrates The Lannert Group's award-winning excellence
in planning and landscape architectural design.
