It's not something people typically give too much thought too. We walk on them every day, we drive our cars on them and navigate through traffic on them but rarely contemplate the importance of our roadways and sidewalks. We take our showers and wash our dishes and think nothing of where the water goes or where it comes from. It's very easy to take there things for granted until they become a problem. Streets, sidewalks, stoplights, water and sewer systems are the most essential element within any community. A good infrastructure can always be found beneath any healthy community.

At Jeffrey Place, an extensive amount of planning and consideration has been given to our roads and utility infrastructure. Pedestrian friendly tree-lined streets have been planned with the safety and convenience of the individual at the forefront of their design. Streets have been developed to allow ample on-street parking and traffic flow, while keeping their scale in proportion to the people that will be using them. People first...then the cars.

Go a little deeper, beneath the surface, and the planning really shines through. With all new underground utilities, Jeffrey Place will not be marred by tangles of wires strung overhead, allowing for truly unobstructed views of exquisite architecture, green streetscapes and the downtown Columbus skyline. We'll also be ahead of the game by being fully compliant with EPA standards for separated stormwater and sewer lines.

Looking forward, as new technologies evolve, forethought has already been given to allow access to additional underground utility ducts for new cabling, being it fiber-optics or the next wave of high speed communication technology, we'll be ready for it.
