Why commercial glazing in WaterSound is different.
WaterSound is St. Joe Company's fastest-growing master-planned community on east 30A — WaterSound Beach, WaterSound Origins, WaterSound West Beach, and The Hub at WaterSound mixed-use anchor a portfolio of commercial that's run on St. Joe's architectural standards and Walton County's 135 mph coastal WBDR.
Architectural context: WaterSound is St. Joe Company's master-planned development along east 30A and just inland — coastal vernacular New Urbanist mixed with The Hub's larger-format commercial, all under St. Joe's architectural standards and Walton County's 135 mph coastal WBDR.
