Perinton residential community near Rochester, New York, is a classic, almost a diagrammatically pure, manifestation of the planning principle of separating vehicular and pedestrian traffic as well as separating habitable and service areas. The project is composed of 560 units, both garden apartments and townhouses, arranged along four parallel vehicular culs-de-sac. The units’ major rooms always face away from the traffic and instead open onto green courtyards and private terraces. There is a pedestrian path leading to a 6,000 square foot community center at the corner of the site. When the grade of the site changes, there are occasional modifications to the housing pattern where instead the units are stepped back, creating visual variety. There is parking available right off of the vehicular ways. The entire project is kept at a low scale of two stories, with some one story and some two story connector units. The second story, single level units are accessed through point loaded stairs. There are seven different unit types in the project ranging from studio to four bedroom units, allowing for residential diversity. Units are often clustered to create more private entrance mews away from the rest of the public pedestrian circulation. When the units are arranged in lines, the unit is separated from the parking by a line of pedestrian walkways.
