The Village at Hendrix - a new, walkable community - is under construction in Conway, Arkansas, right next door to the Hendrix College campus. Our New Urbanist community was planned by world-renowned town planners and architects Andres Duany and Elizabeth Plater-Zyberk. The Village is a stimulating neighborhood of architectural grace, authenticity, good proportions and rigorous detailing with a firm commitment to sustainability and green building principles. People of all ages and backgrounds can enjoy being part of a community where the streetscapes become our outdoor living room.
Step out your door for a stroll. In three minutes or less, you'll pass astonishingly well-detailed and proportioned single-family houses, stately townhouses and elegant mixed-use apartments. Your unfolding experience will reveal shops, restaurants, workplaces, civic and academic buildings along broad, tree-shade sidewalks. You'll be joined by walkers, cyclists and strollers and will share in the community's vitality.
New Urbanism is a world-wide movement, but it's not new. Most cities and towns in America, including Conway, started out as the sort of community that New Urbanism seeks to recall and create anew.
New Urbanism features:
The first of five phases is now under construction and will include 50 single-family detached houses, 61 townhouses and flex townhouses and 63 apartments, a Market Square and the first of four mixed-use buildings of the town center.
Missouri-based Panera Bread Co. will open in The Village at Hendrix next summer, becoming the first commercial tenant of our New Urbanist community. Panera operates full-service bakery-cafes that serve fresh meals throughout the day.
Southwestern Energy Company will begin construction of their $25 million, 100,000-square-foot regional headquarters this fall and serve as the anchor on the north side of The Village.
We are reclaiming and revitalizing the creek that winds through The Village property, so you can enjoy trails, outdoor classrooms and more.
