Howard Village Center

Thomas J. Juza Custom Home & Design, Inc. is currently seeking to lease available square footage in the Village of Howard's new "Howard Village Center."  Commercial and mixed-use zoning offers new construction built to suit lessees' needs. 



Village Center Master Plan

The Village Center Master Plan is intended to guide development rather than act as the definitive solution for how the site should be developed. This flexibility will allow developers to bring proposals that are consistent with the guidelines to the Village for review. Allowing this type of flexibility is necessary to accommodate changes in market demands. Some elements of the plan such as primary street connections and the Village Square size and location should be more tightly controlled to assure the Village of Howard the development of key components that form the backbone of the Village Center.
