Turning the ordinary into extraordinary, the Bridgeland community is doing much more than simply incorporating parks into its master plan – it’s creating dedicated gardens that will be natural oases for residents.
A focal point within Bridgeland’s First Bend community is Turtle Lane, a strolling path features bronze climbing statues in the shape of turtles nestled beneath one of the community’s several old-growth oak trees, carefully preserved by developers and estimated to be more than 50 years old. Turtle Lane culminates in the Butterfly Garden, a small park planted with butterfly-friendly perennial flowers and plants. Benches throughout the garden offer comfortable viewing areas to watch the playful creatures amid the colorful blooms.
