Synterra, Ltd, was responsible for planning site improvements to an existing development of 460 townhouses and 4 senior citizen high-rise buildings.

Design, Planning and Compliance.
Designing the outdoor living, wayfinding and entry to the community.
In addition to traditional building code and construction compliance, this project also met the requirements of HUD, ADA and other federal guidelines.

To deliver a master plan that met or exceeded all compliance requirements, Synterra worked closely with resident representatives, on-site management, and the Philadelphia Housing Authority Project Manager. The approved plan evolved by balancing resident requests and comments with HUD and other agency guidelines.

Creating an outdoor environment that senior citizens can embrace because it improves their lives.
The plan included a new inviting entrance, a park for seniors, a community garden and front terrace upgrades throughout the complex.
