Thoughts from our Artisan Partners...
"I was particularly impressed by how many of the design choices seemed to draw inspiration from local businesses. I believe this really fosters a strong sense of community, and it's something that resonated deeply with me. It’s clear that a great deal of thought went into creating spaces that feel connected to the local area. I may be biased, but the Shyndigz Market unit in particular, seemed like the perfect place to create a sweet retreat and heartfelt memories!"
– Jordan, Manager of Shyndigz
"These units are an incredible nod to Carytown- they provide a built-in welcome to the neighborhood! Anyone moving in who may already know the shops in Carytown can clearly see the inspiration, while anyone moving in from a different city will have a reason to explore and get to know the area! The subtle nods to Plan 9 will be noticeable to any long time patron of our shop without being overt for someone who may have not discovered us yet. What a thrill to be a small piece of someone's new home."
– Jim Bland, Plan 9 owner
