I personally am a huge fan of nature and being in the outdoors, and I think that definitely influenced my trip to Mt. Laurel in a positive way. Respect should always be shown to our environment and the designers here had that in mind while planning this community. These homes were toward the back of the neighborhood, farther from the village area, on the larger lots. Most of the old growth trees are still standing, and it's due to their positive influence on life in general. Old growth trees increase property value, provide shade, decrease heating and cooling costs, and certainly don't deserve to be chopped down so that a monstrosity of a house can stand in its place. These beautiful plants are hundreds of years old and are a huge benefit to have. I was very pleased with the designers abilities to leave as many large trees standing will still putting homes on lots.
