The A.D. Makepeace Company proposes the phased development of a new mixed-use village community in South Plymouth. Its design incorporates smart growth principles such as compact development, open space preservation, and low-impact design, and utilizes innovative bylaws recently enacted by the town of Plymouth. Makepeace has grown cranberries for five generations, and is now the largest cranberry grower in the world, farming 1,920 acres in southeastern Massachusetts. While the company is expanding its leadership role in the cranberry industry, it is also creating plans, with support from the towns of Wareham, Plymouth and Carver, for property it owns in those towns that is not suitable for cranberry bog. The development plan replicates growth patterns in villages, which historically emerged around jobs, commerce, or meeting-places. The Plymouth project represents a coordinated, cooperative effort to realize the benefits of the town’s new Transfer of Development Rights and Traditional Rural Village Development  verlay districts. The mixed-use village center will consist of housing, pedestrian-scaled commercial uses, civic buildings and spaces, landscaped gathering areas, recreational areas, and parking.(Taken from AD Makepeace River Run fact sheet
