With unique dedication to the principles of Traditional Neighborhood Design, Smart Growth, and New Urbanism, Morris Beacon Design engineers walkable neighborhoods, streets, and sites in balance with nature.
Morris Beacon Design implements Smart Growth by providing constructible walkable neighborhood/site design and context sensitive street design to facilitate connections both physical and social.
Morris Beacon Design provides eco-sensitive neighborhood, street, & site design, incorporating sustainable infrastructure design principles and green stormwater best practices calibrated to urban context.
Our research has demonstrated the benefits of compact development for the watershed, proving compact development as the ultimate stormwater BMP. Morris Beacon Design supports the generation of watershed focused form-based codes, stormwater ordinances, and design manuals, and reviews existing regulations and guidelines relative to compact development, walkability, & watershed impact.
Morris Beacon Design provides conceptual civil engineering design in the area of walkability and green infrastructure, and serves as a liaison between the charrette team and local engineers, municipal representatives, planners, & the public.
A great master plan is too often compromised when it comes time for detailed engineering & construction. Morris Beacon Design provides integrated site layout, grading, utility design, & construction administration services for New Urbanist & TOD projects, and can also liaison with local engineers to ensure proper execution.
In order to quantify the financial impact of New Urbanist planning and implementation, Morris Beacon Design can design a conventional suburban alternative to your project and compare the cost to construct infrastructure for each scenario.
