A new neighborhood green space is coming to Heights Park Village—one of the final parks planned for Daybreak’s original lower villages. Basin Park sits near the intersection of Kestrel Rise Rd and Split Rock Dr and adds a relaxing place to walk, gather and enjoy the evening glow.

What & where
At long last, we’re finally adding Basin Park at Kestrel Rise Rd and Split Rock Dr in Heights Park Village. Moreover, this thoughtfully planned park is designed as a calm, walkable space that seamlessly blends into the existing neighborhood fabric. In addition, it complements nearby parks by expanding recreational options, enhancing community connectivity, and, most importantly, providing residents with an inviting destination to relax, gather, and enjoy nature.
Planned features
- Walking path for easy loops and quick strolls.
- Native plantings to create a natural, low‑water landscape.
- Teepee‑inspired picnic shade (a deconstructed “teepee” form) with evening lighting for after‑dusk gatherings.
Two nearby greens
In addition to Basin Park, the ongoing construction also includes two separate grassy areas nearby, making it easy for visitors to toss a frisbee, stretch out a blanket, or, moreover, let little legs run free.
Homes near Basin Park

*The amenities described in this post in both copy and imagery represent the designers’ vision for this area of the community and what Daybreak Communities intends to build at this point in time, however it’s still early in the journey. The process for taking any amenity from concept to completion involves many steps and months of work including the creation of detailed construction drawings, engineering, and obtaining bids to ensure that the scope of the project as designed fits within a pre-determined budget. During this process, changes can and do occur to the original concept. Some elements of what is described and shown above may be changed or eliminated completely. Our intent in sharing this information at this point in time is to provide a preview of what’s being designed to help the public understand how this area might live. It is not to present a final solution or commitment to build a specific design.
