Design rooted in responsibility. Operations built for longevity.

Sustainability + Stewardship

Forest + Foundry is created with an environmental commitment that reflects the character of the land it sits on.

From energy-efficient systems to solar-readiness and thoughtful land management, every decision supports a community that lives lightly, lasts longer, and nurtures its surroundings.

EV Charging Readiness

Parking areas are equipped for electric vehicle charging, with electrical capacity and conduit infrastructure installed to support Level 2 chargers. This makes it simple for residents to transition to cleaner transportation over time while preparing the property for future mobility needs.

Solar-Ready Roof Design

The community’s roofing and electrical systems are built solar-ready, allowing for streamlined installation of photovoltaic panels as technology and local policy evolve. Structural load considerations, conduit pathways, and electrical panel space are already in place to support future solar adoption with minimal disruption.

All-Electric Heating + Cooling

Forest + Foundry uses high-efficiency electric heat pumps for heating, cooling, and ventilation, reducing on-site carbon emissions and improving year-round comfort. This all-electric approach aligns with New York’s building electrification goals and modernizes energy use without sacrificing performance.

Smart Waste + Compactor Planning

A centralized trash and recycling compactor system supports clean, efficient waste management. The design reduces hauling frequency, minimizes on-site mess, and keeps the grounds organized while supporting recycling and proper waste sorting.

Care for the Landscape

The land around Forest + Foundry plays a central role in the community’s identity. Development is guided by principles of stewardship, preserving natural tree stands where possible, shaping trails with minimal impact, and respecting the existing forest edge. Landscaping emphasizes native plantings, natural materials, and low-maintenance ecological practices.

Community Garden + Shared Stewardship

Forest + Foundry includes a community garden and a network of natural trails that weave through the property. These spaces are designed to encourage hands on interaction with the landscape. Residents may choose to cultivate garden plots, participate in seasonal planting days, or simply enjoy the walking paths bordered by preserved tree stands. The intention is to create areas where people feel more connected to the land and can play a role in maintaining its long term health.

The trails are shaped with minimal impact, following natural contours and blending into the existing woodland environment. Native plantings and soft landscaping enhance the sense of place, while the garden provides an opportunity for residents to engage with the land in meaningful ways. Together, these features support a culture of stewardship and continuity between the natural setting and the community experience.

Inspired by Nature. Designed for Tomorrow.

Forest + Foundry’s sustainability approach reflects the community’s connection to its environment. By combining durable materials, thoughtful energy systems, and long-term planning, the community demonstrates a commitment to reduced environmental impact, operational resilience, and a healthier future. These efforts support both residents and the wider Stillwater region for years to come.
