FIRST SALES!
This fall was busy as we opened our information office at 1081 East Montague (come visit to see our latest renderings & our 3-D flythrough of the neighborhood) - and released Mixson’s first 29 homes.
In one week, our team took 23 reservations and sold 12 residences! If you’ve been considering buying in Mixson - now is the time. All the information, including pricing, is up on the www.insidemixson.com website.
We’re very excited about this momentum and see it as evidence that people are not only interested in sustainable development - they’re ready to live it.

MIXSON CIVIC TRUST
We’re committed to promoting strong social and cultural connections between Mixson and the Park Circle area. To achieve this goal, we’re helping launch an independent, not for profit organization called the Mixson Civic Trust. It’s mission: fostering active civic life in the community. This organization will help connect new neighbors and friends, and will be a strong complement to the many active local neighborhood civic clubs and associations. We’re hoping the Trust will sponsor a number of events in 2008 such historical walking tours, cultural and arts events, and community volunteer days. Stay tuned for details, and let us know if you’d like to be involved or if you have ideas for early activities.
