Prospect Park works to re-imagine the Daphne Innovation + Science Complex (DISC) site to leverage the in-place work to create a new, mixed-use, walkable commercial center for the surrounding residential community.
The proposal still allows for the advanced manufacturing training center, and now we are surrounding that with a mix of housing options, from overnight stay (hospitality) to long-term rental to fee simple home ownership. The variety of retail, restaurant, and commercial office opportunities will help make this area a thriving LIVE-WORK-PLAY district and offer onsite residents and nearby property owners a different living experience than is currently offered in Daphne. The planning aims to infill the wide boulevard streets with on-street parking broken by street tree wells to create an inviting pedestrian zone where residents and visitors can enjoy the community greens, parks, and walking paths that weave through and around the site.
