NorthStar, as an extension of the client, provided numerous site plan revisions to optimize the ability to market the project. Site plan revisions were utilized to create specific communities, efficient development phases, and optimized open space opportunities within the project. With the revisions to the site plan, NorthStar prepared three tentative maps for previously un-mapped large lot parcels and assisted with marketing graphics.
