Located on the west side of Fu Xian Lake, the beautiful 1,057-acre site posed significant challenges including steep terrain, a nearby chemical factory, and a roadway separating the property from the lakefront. SWA’s master plan and integrated mass grading program establish a sophisticated site configuration to maximize lake views from this high-end resort with golf, spa hotel/ conference center, and high-density homes.
