Mark Baker, ASLA, Partner & Kyle Theodore, ASLA, Principal of Wood+Partners, Inc. presented Reality Check & Planning Trends for Today’s Amenity Communities at the 8th Annual Amenity Communities Marketing Summit

This presentation included a review of new planning and design trends and techniques to enhance market position and compete in today’s market place. Amenity communities have changed forever and, perhaps for the better! Tomorrow’s buying market will be looking for more than the traditional golf course and amenity center. Sustainability, green building, open space, nature based recreation, wellness, pedestrian and vehicular connectivity and mixed-use village core areas in addition to golf courses and active family oriented pool amenities are just some of the facilities and planning principles that will be covered in this session. This session also took a look at re-planning techniques for distressed properties and explores options on how to reposition properties to respond to new realities.
