As the name implies, the Lake Park neighborhood abuts a 9-acre lake surrounded by dozens of newly planted mature trees, a dock for kayak launching and playground equipment.<\/p>\n<p style=\"line-height: 18.0pt;\">None of the homes under construction in Lake Park actually back up to the lake. That\u2019s by design, Carpenter said, so that all residents of the area can access the water and surrounding park space by sidewalks and trails.<\/p>\n<p style=\"line-height: 18.0pt; box-sizing: content-box; font-variant-caps: normal; font-stretch: normal; outline: none; caret-color: #222222; orphans: auto; text-align: start; widows: auto; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; word-spacing: 0px;\">\u201cWe want people to use the parks to go out and meet their neighbors,\u201d Carpenter said.<\/p>\n<p style=\"line-height: 18.0pt; box-sizing: content-box; font-variant-caps: normal; font-stretch: normal; outline: none; caret-color: #222222; orphans: auto; text-align: start; widows: auto; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; word-spacing: 0px;\">Real estate professionals at Walsh haven\u2019t noticed a decrease in the number of prospective buyers visiting the west Fort Worth development in recent weeks, Carpenter said. Stock markets have experienced steep declines during the past two weeks, and most experts say the main culprit is concerns about the coronavirus hampering the movement of people and goods around the world.<\/p>\n<p style=\"line-height: 18.0pt; box-sizing: content-box; font-variant-caps: normal; font-stretch: normal; outline: none; caret-color: #222222; orphans: auto; text-align: start; widows: auto; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; word-spacing: 0px;\">But Carpenter said the economic slump could help prospective home buyers afford their homes. The Federal Reserve earlier this month cut interest rates in an emergency move to support the economy, which Carpenter said could<span class=\"apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span>make mortgages more affordable for buyers.<\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]\n<h5>WHO&#8217;S BUILDING THE HOMES<\/h5>\n<p>Seven builders are putting in homes at Walsh \u2014 including Britton Homes, David Weekley Homes, Drees Homes, Highland Homes, Perry Homes, Toll Brothers and Village Homes.<\/p>\n<p>The homes will be priced from the $260,000s to $800,000s.
