Residents of 517 and 521 Crescent Avenue share a steep asphalt driveway to reach their properties. This project proposes the construction of a shared, regraded driveway to serve 505, 511, 515, 517, and 521 Crescent Avenue. The proposed driveway would begin at the existing entrance of 521 Crescent Avenue and end at 505 Crescent Avenue. The goal of this project is to enhance vehicular access, provide reliable ingress and egress for emergency services, and improve overall safety. The driveway has been designed to minimize site disturbance by utilizing the existing driveway corridor, areas of moderate grades wherever feasible, and retaining walls. Stormwater management practices will be incorporated to ensure no increase in runoff to Lake Lonely. CLA SITE Landscape Architecture, Planning, and Engineering, P.C.
