The masterplan delineates ten villages, all of which are planned with energy-efficient, environmentally-sustainable measures, including off-the-grid housing initiatives. The island’s principal commercial area is the town center, which follows the curve of the harbor and marina. This vibrant mixed-use district will feature a retail-oriented Main Street, lined with shops and restaurants on the ground floors and apartments and offices above, as well as civic elements including a club house and educational center. A square and plaza offer outdoor community gathering areas, while an open-air market serves as a vibrant destination on the banks of the marina. North of the Town Center, a Pier District borders the existing fishing village, offering additional commercial resources to the Island’s current residents and seamlessly connecting the current residences to the future village network. To the west, a forest reserve offers open space and maintains the nesting habitat of local turtles and marine birds.
