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.

Pedestrians Rule at The Village

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.

What is New Urbanism?

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:

• A community with a clearly defined center and public gathering spaces with shops, dining establishments and businesses within easy walking distance of residences.
• A community that recreates a slower, closer world.

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.
