second major award earned by The Villages at LaFayette Park this year.

In January, the development received the Exceptional Merit Award for Development

Design in the Expansion of Town Center at the Atlanta Regional Commission's

annual State of the Region Breakfast.

The Villages

at LaFayette Park, Fayetteville Village LLC's multi-use community, is

an approximately 110-acre development three blocks west of the Old Courthouse

Square in Fayetteville and bordered by Ga. Highway 54 on the south and

the Fayette County High School complex on the north.

The development

is planned to have 151 single family detached homes featuring Turn of

the Century styles with prices starting in the $200,000s.

The builders

are all established and well known local companies, including Mike Harrell

& Associates, Ravin Homes, and Ray Wright Homes. In addition to these

Classic American Village and Cottage homes, there will also be 22 Estate

homes on larger homesites.

Construction

has also begun on the first 11 of 30 townhouses which are being built

building community. These townhouses are priced from $189,000 to $230,000.

Mike Harrell

& Associates and Chris Dixon & Associates are being represented

in the development by Lee-Dixon Realty, whose agents, Ann W. Roghelia

and Jane Foster, can be contacted at 770-461-3293. Ravin Homes' in-house

At this time,

each single family residential builder has a decorated model home in the

community, but a unified sales center is currently under construction.

With completion of the sales center, the three model homes will be placed

on the market.

In addition

to the residential units, the community will also contain several parks,

a junior olympic pool, playground, and commercial and office space.

Also on the

property is The Villages Amphitheater, which was named Best Public Project

at the Development of Excellence Awards event. The late last September,

is owned by the Downtown Development Authority and managed by Main Street

Tourism Assoc. A multi-use venue representing all aspects of the cultural

arts and educational community, it was designed to fit the architectural

emphasis of Main Street with its brick accents and turn-of-the-century

lighting. The amphitheater is located on a three-acre tract at the intersection

of LaFayette Avenue and Tiger Trail and shares the parking lot at Fayette

County High School.
