Hartshorne Plunkard Architecture is the project architect, whose design for the third-phase tower includes a glass curtain wall, with long rows of balconies that include dividing walls between units. A metal ribbon-like element also wraps around the exterior.

Old Town Park’s masterplan also includes a pair of shorter 31 and 40-story towers, the first of which was completed in 2017 and the second earlier this year. Additionally, the existing nine-story Atrium Village complex has also been renovated and integrated into the plan.
