Hartshorne Plunkard Architecture is responsible for the overall masterplan, as well as the design of each building. The 447-foot-tall Old Town Park Phase Three adapts to the style of the other towers with reflective glass, metal accents and paneling, as well as the recessed balconies to add further depth to the facade.
