RICHPORT PROPERTIES SPONSORS ARTS IN THE PARK IN SUWANEE

Press Releases :: RICHPORT PROPERTIES SPONSORS ARTS IN THE PARK IN SUWANEE
May 31, 2006

Richport Properties served as one of the primary sponsor of Suwanee's Arts in the Park, a June 3 event that invited residents to come to Town Center Park and enjoy the arts. Always the hands-on building experts, Richport Properties staff members were on-site to help children decorate their own birdhouses.

"Participating in the Arts in the Park last year allowed us an opportunity to get to know the people of Suwanee while at the same time supporting their community," said Lee Williams, Vice President of Communities Development and Marketing for Richport Properties. "Our motto says that we’re 'Building a Better World Together,' and whether we're participating in community-oriented activities, helping children or building homes for birds or people, that's what we enjoy doing."

At the event, Richport Properties unveiled a rendering of the streetscape at Stonecypher, its traditional neighborhood development (TND) located adjacent to Old Town Suwanee and within walking distance to Town Center Park. Priced from the $220,000s, the community features a mix of single-family and townhomes.

"Stonecypher offers the opportunity for residents to live in a true neighborhood," continued Williams. "This community is reminiscent of bygone eras when residents were connected to one another rather than separated by suburban sprawl. At Richport, we are committed to building true communities and Stonecypher is proof that today's home buyers are now searching for this kind of place."

At Stonecypher, Craftsman-style cluster homes feature covered front porches where owners and guests can visit on cool evenings. Features such as marble fireplaces and 9-foot ceilings on the first floor make the homes as welcoming on the inside as they are inviting from the outside. The community features a 6-acre natural conservation area donated to the Gwinnett Open Land Trust by Richport Properties. When the neighborhood is complete, this area will offer homeowners a common place to enjoy the outdoors and build community spirit. And, sidewalks will connect the homes and create an easy walk to PlayTown Suwanee and other Old Town Suwanee amenities.

Supporting its homebuyers in ways that go beyond their immediate neighborhoods and extend to their quality of life in the larger community, Richport Properties is a Pillar Sponsor of the annual Suwanee Day celebration, to be held Saturday, September 16, 2006, in Town Center Park. As part of that sponsorship, Richport is supporting Suwanee community-building events all summer, including Arts in the Park and Suwanee's Big Splash on June 17.

Led by company President Rick Porter, who brings with him more than 30 years of building experience, Richport Properties is currently building three communities in Suwanee: Stonecypher, Old Suwanee and Village Grove.
