Roland Gate fits right in

The 10 townhomes that comprise Roland Gate were built on land that originally was a big commercial business. It was the fact that the homes could blend into an already existing site that first attracted the attention of Pat Massey, president of Metroscape Development, which built the community.

“I think it’s a very environmentally friendly way to develop, by doing in-fill in existing neighborhoods,” Massey said. “It’s a good way to do your little part to stop sprawl. Build on the infrastructure that the city has so people don’t have to travel, so they can hook into already existing amenities in the neighborhood.”
