Our Pages for People book club is premiering its first LinkedIn Live on July 25 and we’re getting a good crowd of folks joining. Want to do us a favor? Share the event with your own followers. Let’s make this engaging as we discuss Jan Gehl’s book, Cities for People, what we learned from the book, from Gehl, and what does a “city for people” look like. Scott Snodgrass will also be announcing the next book, too. And if you’re not a book club member hop on to see how to join (hint: it’s very easy) for the next book. https://lnkd.in/gRh849p3 #placesforpeople #pagesforpeople

Last month we announced the start of construction for The Filling Station at Indigo. It's the first building set to open at Indigo Commons — the mixed-use town center located at the heart of our 235-acre neighborhood. The Filling Station will serve as a general store, welcome center and first stop for visitors to the neighborhood. The approximately 3,000-square-foot space is anticipated to open in late 2024. #placesforpeople

It’s poll time! Here’s a question for urban design professionals, planners, developers and dreamers: In crafting your next-gen community, what would you prioritize? What other features are crucial for the ideal space? Share your thoughts in the comments. We’ll continue sharing our own as we travel on our journey to develop and launch Indigo. #placesforpeople

What an honor!   We’re thrilled to announce Indigo took home the Grand Award at PCBC’s Gold Nugget Awards for Best On-the-Boards Site Plan last week.   It capped off an amazing week, starting with The Builder's Daily article that reported strong sales out of the gate of our cottages and duets at Indigo by Empire Communities.   #placesforpeople   https://lnkd.in/gKYBfrtb

Modern homebuyers increasingly want more than just a home. They want communities that blend the best of urban and suburban living. Our friends at DAHLIN Architecture | Planning | Interiors spell out why builders need to create walkable, active, and engaged communities that cater to this evolving demographic. #placesforpeople https://lnkd.in/g2uzprYb

What a treat to be highlighted in the Longhorn Business Network alumni newsletter. Thanks for showcasing Meristem and Indigo and our commitment to creating Places for People. #TexasExes #LonghornBusinessNetwork #placesforpeople Scott Snodgrass Clayton Garrett

Places for People™ isn’t just a tagline, it’s our mission. We believe buying a home is more about what kind of house a buyer wants. It’s about how they want to live in it. The good folks at Cecilian Partners, Inc. took that idea and have created an interactive, custom map that lets our homebuyers fine-tune their home search. Number of bedrooms and baths? Check. Home type? Check. “Neighborhood vibe”? Double check. Buyers can choose how much privacy they want, from being tucked away to being in the middle of all the action. Kudos to Cecilian for the partnership and collaboration on this cool project! Curious to see the map? Check it out: https://lnkd.in/exZJAex7 #placesforpeople #proptech Teri Slavik-Tsuyuki
