The Brownstones, Sacramento This medium density townhouse project is located in the Midtown section of Sacramento. The project was designed to replicate the brownstone buildings typically found in Brooklyn and Manhattan. The landscape design featured small patios between the public sidewalks and the buildings. The patios were designed to include concrete paved areas for resident use, balanced by painting areas with shrubs and accent trees. The patios included wrought-iron fencing and stairways that helped define, as well as provide additional visual accent, to this important urban space. Originally designed in 2007, construction was not competed until 2014 due to the economic downturn of 2008.
