The development firm of Centerville Properties commissioned Aria Group Architects to develop the master plan as well as design many individual buildings contained in the plan. Spread over 40 acres in suburban Algonquin, the master plan includes mixed-use retail and work/live condo units, office buildings, retail buildings and restaurant pad sites. Integrated into Aria’s master plan will be a large residential development to the west of the first phase site.

Several buildings included in the Esplanade plan will be 3 story mixed use buildings. The ground floor will be dedicated to retail space and the second and third floors will be work/live condominium units. Drawing on aspects of an urban lifestyle, residence of these work/live units will have the flexibility to run their business, maintain a loft type residence or both. In some cases, attached garages with 2 level town home units will be included in the mix. Including these work/live opportunities in the mix will encourage a critical mass of on-site users that become synergistic with the restaurant/retail venues in the area.
