Thornwood Commons

Location: Dover, New Hampshire

Project Size: 100+ acres

Estimated Project Value: N/A

Thornwood Commons, located in Dover, New Hampshire is a mixed-use project.  The main goal of this project is to create series of smaller neighborhoods that also provides a central location for the existing surrounding neighborhoods to join the retail, commercial, and food activities that the commons would offer. 

The 100 acre plus property has numerous building types envisioned, including a bank, car dealership, congregate housing campus, medical office, multiple office buildings, restaurant, retail plaza, single-family housing and more.  The overall project theme is based on a traditional New England image.  Elements of this style are brick and clapboard faced walls, pitched roofs, window and roof dormers, punched windows with occasional larger feature windows, and wide-open spaces. 

The new retail and office buildings will assist in boosting the economy of the city of Dover.  They will offer job opportunities, shorter commutes, and a strong central focus for everyone.  The commons will also provide socializing space and provide opportunities for the neighborhoods to be closer together.  A planned  outdoor walking trail, gazebo and family gathering space would complement the existing natural features.  An existing dam would be rebuilt, stabilizing the pond to recapture the existing nature and beauty of the surrounding landscape.
