Annapolis Landscape Architects provided landscape architectural services for Crystal Spring Annapolis, a fully integrated 111-acre community including a continuing care retirement community, a performing arts center, office space, grocery, inn, retail and residential uses. Tree save areas adjacent to surrounding tree stands and the Critical Areas form the central core of the site while development is focused on the Forest Drive corridor and existing open space. Pedestrian trails are woven through the tree preservation areas and connect the retirement community with the retail areas. Throughout the site natural resources have been preserved and highlighted as part of the design. As an example, the village green, a three-acre central public park space, integrates existing mature trees into the design to create a sense of scale and permanence to the green.
