架构师提供的文本描述。阿默斯特镇是阿默斯特学院和马萨诸塞大学旗舰校区的所在地，最近进行了全社区的总体规划工作，这是自20世纪60年代以来的第一次。新的总计划认识到，目标不再仅仅是防止糟糕的发展，而是促进良好的发展。良好的开发需要优秀的设计。

Text description provided by the architects. The Town of Amherst, home of Amherst College and the UMass flagship campus, has recently undergone a community-wide master planning effort, the first since the 1960s. The new master plan recognizes that the goal is no longer just to prevent bad development, but to foster good development. Good development requires excellent design.

Boltwood Place建于2010-2011年，建在一个非常紧凑的场地上，是一座充满土地的建筑，是该镇总体规划中推荐的增长类型。自1950年以来，Amherst的人口和密度都增加了两倍多，从而导致了住房的显著增长。然而，该镇在很大程度上保留了历史上的“村庄和农场”定居模式，并保存了许多历史建筑、文物和景观。

Constructed in 2010-2011 and built on an extremely tight site, Boltwood Place is an in-fill building, the type of growth recommended in the town’s Master Plan. Since 1950, Amherst has more than tripled in population as well as density, causing a significant growth in housing. Yet, the town has largely managed to retain its historic “villages and farms” pattern of settlement, and has preserved many of its historic buildings, objects, and landscapes.
