Galen Weston - Windsor

Windsor

In 1989, Galen and Hilary Weston broke ground on ‘Windsor’, a private residential development on Florida’s east coast. Promoted as “a Village by the Sea,” the project combined Weston’s interest in modern architecture with decades of first-hand experience in commercial planning. Key concepts associated with the ‘New Urbanism’ were adopted and suburban sprawl rejected in favour of a narrow residential grid. Progressive Architecture commented that “behind Windsor’s seemingly conservative demeanour is a place imbued with the spirit of social reform.”
