Lee Square
Lee Square is a single family residential development in the heart of downtown Bowling Green, just two blocks from the Barren River. When fully developed, there will be 27 new homes ranging in size from 1,200 to 1,500 s.f., with exterior finishes of cement siding, brick and stone. A neighborhood park and walking trail are two of the special amenities that will be offered in this development. On June 8, the City held a ribbon cutting on the first phase of 12 homes.
The City of Bowling Green is the developer for the Lee Square project and two local non-profits - HANDS, Inc. and Live the Dream - are contracting for construction of the homes. This project demonstrates several innovations in single family home construction, including the installation of fire sprinkler systems in each house, sponsored by the Bowling Green Fire Department, use of carriage strip driveways to reduce stormwater runoff, and a narrower street and wider walking path with Max Hampton Street in Phase II.
