The large site allowed the apartment campus to accommodate many community functions and amenities split between the buildings. A community theater, pool, salon, computer room, and exercise rooms, along with various classes and programs support residents’ physical and mental health. Campus design features include a xeriscaped roof, community gardens shared between buildings and a pedestrian walkway which encircles the campus.
