Promenade at Arbor Creek, Sacramento, CA: Commercial and Affordable Family and Seniors Apartments

Kuchman Architects worked together with multiple clients in designing this very pedestrian-friendly project. Rather than using a standard shopping center parking lot design, a traditional street has been developed at the center of the site. A strong edge has been created along this street using building forms, separated sidewalks, traditional street lamps, street trees and parallel parking. A separate strong pedestrian link connects the bus stop on Elk Grove Florin Road with both the commercial and residential portions of the project. The project is a good example of suburban horizontal mixed use. The family apartments were completed in 2013. The seniors apartments were completed in 2015. The retail parcels were built out incrementally.
