Orchard Springs at Truman Ranch is a 213- unit active adult senior living community that is part of a multigenerational master plan with a multifamily housing component.
The architectural design will honor and preserve the ranch-style heritage of the land once known as Citrus Farms by protecting the property’s history and embracing its growth. The architectural design of these projects pays homage to the traditional forms, shapes, and materials found in historic Arizona farms, recognizing their past land use.
This project will invite future connectivity to adjacent properties, creating a very interactive community component while continuing to provide a shield to the adjacent auto-dealer use, therefore protecting the serenity of the remaining Truman Ranch Property.
The landscape goal is to reflect the historic land use in key pedestrian seating areas using historic elements of both an Arizona farm and a citrus farm. Outside of key locations, the landscape palette shall be designed for water conservation.
Throughout Orchard Springs, pedestrian- friendly zones will be created as little islands of retreat from the desert sun. Lush landscaping will utilize indigenous species sensitive to water conservation.
Amenities include a main central courtyard with pool, spa, grilling stations, and a turf area for recreation.
