Elevation Ridge is a beautiful Southeast Boise development located off Highway 21 with stunning views of the foothills. There are 28 Paired Unit home sites with conceptual plans already designed to make things easier the buyer. This one of a kind neighborhood is designed for busy professionals or those looking for minimal maintenance and close proximity to city life.
This project posed many engineering and planning challenges including steep terrain, a large storm drainage floodway that flows through the site, natural rock formations and opposition from the neighboring home owners.

Due to the steep terrain on the project site, a special hillside development permit and hearing process was needed to secure entitlement for the development. We worked hand and hand with the Boise City Hillside Specialist and the Geotechnical Engineer to assure that this project would stable for home construction and that it would not detract from the natural environment and rock formations.
The storm water from a large undeveloped area south of the State Highway 21 drains under the highway and through the project site. Coordination with the Idaho State Transportation Department, the Ada County Highway District, Boise City, and the existing residential developments was essential in getting a consensus from all stakeholders on how this drainage should be directed in order to prevent flooding in a major storm event.
