The Chazen Companies (TCC) is currently providing full planning, engineering, water and wastewater, landscape architecture, ecological, traffic, permitting and survey services for the conversion of Silo Ridge Golf Course into a Golf Resort Community on 670 acres of rolling land in the Town of Amenia.
The design, by Robert A. M. Stern Architects, incorporates a resort hotel under condominium ownership, a mix of residential unit types, and limited ground floor commercial/retail space organized around a spacious green that is evocative of a New England commons. This traditional neighborhood arrangement is centered within a championship golf course by Ernie Els Design. Ecological and biological diversity of the site is enhanced by sensitive inclusion of natural wetlands, watercourses, vegetation and habitats throughout the golf course and resort community. These features provide a beautiful environment for native flora and fauna while providing green filters for storm water quality and quantity. Project wastewater will be treated and recycled for irrigation use on the golf course.
41 Single Family homes, 19 Golf Villas, 300 Hotel Condominium units, 299 Town homes and Condominium units, a 5-Star Restaurant, a Conference Center with meeting and banquet facilities, a Spa and Fitness Center, a Golf Club House for members, a small Winery, indoor and outdoor pools, and indoor tennis facilities are among the amenities planned for the resort community. Design sensitivity toward the natural features allows for more than 80% of the site to be preserved as green open space.
