The unique architectural character of Millstone Town homes has a contemporary flair with a contextual eye towards the nearby architectural ascendants of downtown Tempe. This is accomplished by utilizing a variety of integral colored masonry products and metal clad accents. These materials that vary in both color and texture are used to define each individual unit and add interest to the façades.
This development of 48 town homes is organized to reinforce the character and life of Farmer Avenue and Wilson Street. Town homes with front porches and bay windows face both streets: buildings are sited to create a more continuous frontage in the ‘street- wall’ tradition along both Farmer and Wilson. Defined passageways between the buildings allow visitors to easily enter the central courtyards and interior site units. The town homes are arranged in the center of the site to form a central pedestrian courtyard with open space amenities
