EXTON, PA — Exton's Eagleview is expanding to bring a new trail to its pedestrian path network.

In the midst of Eagleview, a mixed-use community in Exton that boasts opportunity across 800 acres of land, there is an extensive network of trails for its 4,000 residents and 6,000 employees. Hankin Group recently announced its plans to expand the community with a new path set to begin construction later this week.

Since 2013, community members have enjoyed ten miles of trails among beautiful, landscaped parks over the Eagleview development. “This new trail will improve connectivity of Eagleview’s already extensive pedestrian network linking the commercial and residential communities to Town Center,” said Lance Hillegas, Hankin Group’s VP of Design and Sustainable Development.

“The miles of pedestrian trails and sidewalks in Eagleview connect to the surrounding communities, retail-commercial areas, and to the greater trail network in Chester County,” said Hillegas. “Eagleview’s trails connect to Hickory Park athletic fields, Marsh Creek State Park, and Uwchlan and Struble trails.”

Hankin’s urbanism approach and emphasis on sustainability is evident through many of its projects. One of the most anticipated developments for the company is River Station, a transit-oriented community in the borough of Downingtown. The property is situated along 68 acres along the Brandywine Creek and will create a link between Struble trail, Chester Valley trail and the East Branch Brandywine Trail.
