Site Plan The Wade Green Road project is a 38-acre traditional neighborhood development (TND) planned by the Quintus Group for southern Cherokee County, Georgia, and designed by Tunnell-Spangler-Walsh & Associates. A TND is a development that draws upon the historic town building practices of the past, including a fine grained mix of uses and housing types, tree-lined sidewalks, interconnected streets, pedestrian-oriented buildings, quality architecture, and neighborhood parks. For more information on TND and new urbanism, please visit the Congress for the New Urbanism web site. The site is located in an area recently studied during the 2005 Bells Ferry LCI, and falls in a portion of the county for which a new Traditional Neighborhood Development zoning code is being implemented. As such, the project represents one of the first developments in the region planned according to TND principles in Cherokee County. The neighborhood includes 250 housing units distributed between two transect* zones (T4 and T5). Keeping with the intent of the County's TND code, both transect zones include a diverse mix of housing and commercial uses, including live-work units, townhomes, and single-family dwellings. All are connected through an efficient network of streets, alleys and lanes that provides internal circulation while providing the opportunity for future street connections as the adjacent lots are redevelopment. * For a detailed definition of "transect," see this 2000 article from New Urban News.
