Site Description RSV is currently in the process of simultaneously developing and preserving the Canyon Falls site. Plans have been made for the construction of approximately ten office buildings with over 380,000 square feet of floor space. The Canyon Falls property was previously owned by a local businessman who used the site primarily for recreational purposes. Significant stands of forested areas, rock formations, steep slopes, numerous streams and waterfalls of varying size characterize this land which has remained largely untouched for the last fifty years. An existing road winds through what will be the backside of the future development.
Weathered signs warning trespassers remain on random trees throughout the property.
The tree stands are rather dense in portions and isolated tracks of open land dot the well-shaded landscape. Preservation efforts include the maintenance of six natural waterfalls, two streams, spans of open space, community park set-aside as well as numerous trees thoughout the property. When Mr. Voelker first decided to purchase the Canyon Falls property, he was aware of many of the limiting constraints associated with the geologically diverse natural area. However, Mr. Voelker viewed the natural components of the Canyon Falls property as capital assets. He recognized the fact that there was an economic value associated with proper preservation of the existing natural landscape.
