The Ember: Going the Extra Step in a People-First Pocket Neighborhood

Welcome to this conversation, where we dive deep into the development journey of The Ember, a luxurious residential pocket neighborhood in downtown Edmond, Oklahoma. Join Matthew Myers, the developer, and Don Powers of Union Studio, a firm dedicated to making civic contributions through architecture and urban design since 2001.
In this conversation, Matthew and Don take you through the evolution of The Ember, discussing the various site plans that were explored before arriving at the final project. They emphasize the significance of attention to detail in crafting a unique and vibrant community experience, with a primary focus on putting people first.
Nestled in downtown Edmond, this vintage neighborhood fosters a sense of community where friends come together to share life, neighbors stroll to their favorite café for morning coffee, and residents enjoy leisurely strolls through the new Stephenson Park on lazy Saturday afternoons. The day concludes beautifully, with residents relaxing on their porch swings, sharing a glass of wine with friends under the warm glow of gas lanterns.
This exceptional pocket neighborhood comprises 23 cottages featuring 1, 2 & 3 bedrooms, with sizes reaching up to 2,200 square feet. The Ember presents a rare opportunity to own a new home in one of Edmond's most sought-after neighborhoods.

This is incredible. Makes me want to fly across the country and move in now. This is the future of development and I would love to see this in my neighborhood too!
