Project Description:

Sitting at the base of the San Gabriel Mountains, this 17.3-acre mixed-use project not only provides a fresh, new gateway to the city, but also unveils a unique "hybrid" site. Incorporating a mix of two building types offers a broad spectrum of lifestyle alternatives to the burgeoning community. The site consists of 671 units of 3-story tuck under and 4-story wrap style apartments with 20,000 SF of commercial space. The hybrid design segments the large site, providing manageable and pedestrian-friendly parcels that deliver architectural diversity, stimulate connectivity, and promote community engagement.
Contemporary American Farmhouse architecture incorporates crisp, clean lines and provides simple forms for the residential elevations and retail edges. Design elements feature asymmetrical massing with gable roofs, neutral color schemes, and large covered patios. A consistent theme of “Harvest” permeates the site, encouraging gathering at the leasing and amenity core. Additional amenities are offered at the 4-story wrap, including a resort-style pool, fitness courtyard, and a 4th-floor lounge with adjacent outdoor deck providing epic mountain views.
Diverse floor plans offer an array of lifestyle options. The tuck under product provides innovative interlocking studio and one-bedroom units designed to fit in the chassis of a two-bedroom unit, allowing for planning flexibility. The wrap building provides 50-foot-deep interlocking units over the retail component, acting as density builders. Taking advantage of the site’s slope, mixed-use commercial transitions seamlessly under the wrap building, enlivening the street scene. This hybrid site provides a synergy of distinct product types while simultaneously creating a cohesive urban setting. Commercial uses and shared amenities strategically distributed throughout the community deliver a unique and engaging architectural and pedestrian experience.

Framework for Design Excellence

DESIGN FOR EQUITABLE COMMUNITIES:
Harvest at Terra Vista provides design solutions that will positively impact both future occupants and the overall surrounding community. A vibrant, unique “hybrid” site, this project features two distinct yet complementary building types. Thoughtfully designed and planned, the diverse product types and floor plans allow for greater accessibility and livability across different income levels while also accommodating different lifestyles. The integrated and urbanized wrap product targets young professionals, while the townhomes offer more space, growth, and convenience designed for larger families. Differences in product type aside, the overall site design incorporates an intentional and exciting mix of common and shared community amenities, mixed-use retail, and pedestrian-friendly walkways that create and encourage a safe environment for residents to foster interpersonal connection and engagement. With an inviting blend of lifestyle options and uses, Harvest at Terra Vista delivers attainable market rate housing and provides a fresh take on urban living which will attract future residents, benefiting the region at large.

DESIGN FOR INTEGRATION:
In an effort to create an environment that cultivates a sense of place and wellness that is both attainable and beneficial to the community, Harvest at Terra Vista delivers a thoughtful, harmonious mixed-use living experience with beauty and function. A former pumpkin patch, this 17.3-acre site is reimagined to host an innovative hybrid site plan delivering mixed-use residential and activated retail destination bringing value to the community and surrounding area. In addition to the retail component, the two residential building typologies at Harvest at Terra Vista bring greater value to the area by broadening the project’s marketability and reach. By attracting different tenant profiles and demographics, the two product types serve as a unique opportunity for community diversification and growth.
The site’s former occupancy heavily informs the project’s modern agrarian vernacular, a design sentiment that remains consistent throughout the development greeting visitors and residents with material, texture, and form. Pedestrian-friendly parcels punctuated by verdant landscape invite residents to engage and interact with outdoor communal spaces, fostering a sense of belonging.
