Serious competition for The Irvine Company! It's about time!
One thing for sure, I will NEVER buy from The Irvine Company again. My next home purchase in Irvine, for extended family, will likely be from one of the Great Park home builders.
All I can say is I just don't like the way they conduct their business, from the waiting list BS at Santa Maria to the design center rip-offs!
Yup, Test, those are the homes photographed. The park was right across the street.
There were also 3 sets of 3 model homes each under construction around lots 176 and 177 or thereabouts. They just had the foundation slabs poured, though. Or, at least I'm assuming they were models.
I hope you are right. Lots 176, 178, 180 look relatively deep compared with TIC.
Also interestingly, lots 177, 179, 182 (in that area) appear to have relatively wide front facing lots...haven't seen those since the ? 90's/3CWG. Most new TIC products use narrow and shallow lots to maximize home density.

It's not foreign for builders to give the model homes the best lot size... they've done that forever.
But I don't think the homes 191-197 are the same as 141-147 or even the ones behind it (180-186). They all have different footprints.

My understanding is that the Great Park Neighborhoods is going to have all of the models together from various builders so there will be a community of model homes with the actual building sites possibly far away from models.

Those look like this row of homes. Notice how NO OTHER homes in the ENTIRE development have that much side yard setback. Sneaky deceptive if you ask me.

Toxic issues aside... if they price these well and the floorplans are decent, these could tempt me.
My kids might find that 3rd arm useful.
