The ground floor breezeway corridors provide direct pedestrian access to sidewalks and walkways connecting to the proposed South Prescott Avenue frontage, as well as the various tenant amenities located throughout the project. Near the entry walk for each of the building types the development is providing lockage bike racks throughout, for a total of fifty-four (54) spaces.

To encourage resident interaction and promote safety and security within the site, the central courtyard of the project has been programmed with a covered, children’s playground with benches, as well as an adjacent covered pergola with picnic tables and barbeques for tenants' use. Adjacent to the courtyard is a commercial-grade, gated resident’s pool and pool deck. Parking and circulation for the majority of the site has been pushed to the exterior of the site, with the exception of those residential buildings adjacent to East 35^th Place or South Prescott Avenue, where buildings have been placed fronting the roadways and parking, and feature pedestrian access.
