I really enjoyed walking around the "city center" at Mt. Laurel. Architecturally, the buildings looked great and were made to fit in with the natural surroundings, and it was done very well. From the office space in the foreground to the Grocery Store and General Store in the background, all were designed tastefully with the intent of creating diversity. Personally, I do not feel that this will provide diversity, because deep down I feel that this is an upper class community. But that's neither here nor there. The consistent appearance of the buildings in the village area really help you feel like you are somewhere particular and somewhere individual. Not in some CVS filled or Wal-Mart centered suburb.
