Lehigh Acres Community Plan

The community plan for Lehigh Acres offers a new prototype for retrofitting antiquated subdivisions to achieve sustainability. These poorly designed and incompletely developed subdivisions present serious planning, environmental, and fiscal challenges for their host communities. WRT's plan for this vast, previously platted subdivision in Lee County, FL integrates pragmatic growth management and urban design solutions. These solutions include a tiered-development approach, land acquisition, transfer of development rights, and other incentives, which together are designed to steer growth into a more efficient and livable development pattern.
