NexMetro Railhead in Cleburne, Texas
Project Highlights
NexMetro Railhead is a Build-To-Rent (BTR) residential community in Cleburne, Texas featuring a coordinated landscape and amenity design that integrates outdoor living spaces, recreational amenities, and streetscape improvements into a cohesive neighborhood environment. BLA collaborated with the City of Cleburne to coordinate the streetscape design along Cleburne Station and Railhead Parkway, ensuring the developer-installed improvements seamlessly matched the character and design of the surrounding public streetscape.
BLA designed the community's amenity spaces to create inviting destinations for recreation and social gathering. The pool area features a sun shelf, elevated spa, built-in seating, fire pit, shade structure, and coordinated hardscape that provide a resort-style experience for residents. Complementing these spaces are an outdoor kitchen, benches, bike racks, sidewalks, retaining walls, and coordinated fencing and gates that reinforce functionality, security, and circulation throughout the development.
BLA also designed the community's monument signage and entry features to establish a distinctive identity and create an inviting arrival experience for residents and visitors. The landscape design utilizes a durable, deer resistant, low-maintenance planting palette that enhances both the residential streetscape and amenity areas while reinforcing a cohesive community character. As part of the project, BLA also prepared leasing diagrams based on private yard sizes, providing a valuable planning tool to support the client's leasing and marketing efforts.
