Planning on Two Feet: Eat, Sleep, Play, and Work All Within a Short Walk!
Thursday, June 22, 2017
Join us for a tour of the Village at Valley Forge and see how a fully developed Main Street was created on a former Valley Forge golf course amidst a dense network of highways in King of Prussia. Located on 132 acres, the Village at Valley Forge is an excellent example of a successful town center mixed-use development with an urban design focus. This walkable community includes several innovative apartments, an active adult community, a Main Street with restaurants and outdoor cafés, various retail stores, a Wegman’s grocery store, stacked brownstone townhouses, the regional branch of Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia, and plazas, trails, and open spaces all connected by sidewalks to encourage walking throughout the village. The event, which will begin with presentations from several speakers, will include a tour of the Indigo 301 apartments and a walk through this attractive and inviting village community that has been transformative for the King of Prussia area.
This event is being provided as part of
Planning Smarter Montco 2017, a Montgomery County initiative offering planning education and outreach, and corresponds to the Connected Communities theme contained in
Montco 2040: A Shared Vision, Montgomery County’s nationally awarded comprehensive plan.
