Lakeyard District will also include a variety of on-site amenities, such as a multi-level infinity pool with custom water features, a 24-hour fitness center with a yoga and spin studio, and over three acres of programmed outdoor space. The outdoor space will include outdoor TV lounges, cabanas, hammocks, a fire-pit, a dog park, and several grilling stations.
