Abstract
This thesis envisions itself into the future to answer the questions of how we can allow numerous people to have the opportunity to acquire a residential waterfront property when the value of land continues to increase, and waterfront space proceeds to become more limited. With waterfront value increasing and space becoming more and more limited only a sparse amount of people get to experience the luxury of living on the water. I believe that a new area could be developed on multiple waterfront properties (lakes and oceans) that would allow additional waterfront views while allowing the value to be lower than other waterfront homes. The project would stay on the mainland and not require any special services to access via transportation or utilities services. The area would only be allowed to have residential structures in it, while also allowing shared access to some locations within the community. To understand the best design for the proposed waterfront space, a question is posed: How can the forming of land and the design of architecture be combined to create a new form of residential lakeshore properties? The new development will focus on producing the most waterfront views while still allowing the structures to feel like a home and allowing privacy to everyone. Having multiple communities with an option like this would allow more people to have a better chance of obtaining a waterfront property, while also potentially lowering the cost of surrounding waterfront value.
