North Douglas Planned Unit Development

Located on a sloped wooded site overlooking Gastineau Channel, the client needed assistance to permit a single-family housing development. Corvus Design led a team for the master planning and subsequent permitting of this twelve-unit Planned Unit Development housing project. This was a new permitting process for the City and Borough of Juneau, with only one other development having been granted approval under this permit type. The success of the project and permitting was made possible by minimizing environmental impacts, developing common open space and facilities, and creating sustainable housing units. The project also includes a centralized park and playground, a trail system, and ample open space and views of the surrounding landscape.
