Endview is a proposed 250-acre new town adjacent to the existing Endview Plantation, a house built in 1769 and used as a hospital during the Civil War.  Today, the plantation is a regional destination that puts on Civil War reenactments for visitors.  The Endview site plan incorporates the Plantation as a regional park, with contiguous park land reaching into the neighborhood.  The plan also preserves views into the Plantation from nearby Yorktown Road.  A variety of constraints are found on the site including a water easement that bisects the site, wetlands and reservoir protection.  The plan includes a variety of housing types, a commercial center, community clubhouse and a school, as well as parks, greens and squares.
