A quick post for those interested, here's a couple of links to the layout of Odessa National. Later I'll post an edited version with my lot circled in red.

Granted, you have to strain to see the images well, if you're running IE7 you can magnify the image in your browser to see more detail. If you clicked on the first link, you can find my lot by looking at the very top center of the picture, where the road divides the map vertically, there is a bit of white space, to the left of the white space, you'll notice some yellow colored areas that resemble a baseball diamond with what looks like a rectangular sports field that slightly overlap one another. This is what is called Copper Park, one of the sports recreation areas that is part of the planned community's activities areas. Directly to the left of the the baseball diamond/sports fields, are some lots displayed vertically that back to Copper Park. The topmost lot is right on a cul-de-sac, we are the third lot from the top in that vertical column of lots.
Nave-Newell was one of the master planners for the land development of Odessa National, here's an excerpt from their website on our planned community:
Odessa National Golf Community, New Castle County, DE
Nave Newell completed a site master plan for this exclusive community, which is composed of 750 single-family estate homes, carriage homes and town homes interspersed around an 18 hole, professional golf course. A complex and sophisticated project, the Odessa National Golf Course Community features a clubhouse and driving range, walking trails, active recreation parks and vast amounts of open space.
The site encompasses over 600 acres of farmland and woodland. Environmentally sensitive areas were maintained in the Site Master Plan. The proposed development was designed to be in harmony with the natural beauty of the property.
The project required several pump stations, the delineation of floodplain areas and the design of a regional storm water management system in conjunction with golf course irrigation. Nave Newell completed floodplain studies for Hangman’s Run and Beaver Branch. In addition, the firm was responsible for preparing a Letter of Map Revision, which previously had not been completed for this property.
Bolis Properties, another one of the land development companies that was involved in the planning aspects of Odessa National, has this to say:
Odessa National Golf Club and Residential CommunityNew Castle County, DEThe Odessa National Golf Club community is a 761 home master planned, mixed-use golf course community with club house and driving range located in southern New Castle County Delaware. The project is situated on over 620 acres of land with over fifty percent of the land being deed restricted for open space.
The open space plan also consists of miles of walking trails and numerous parks.
Odessa National is comprised of 6 different housing types including town homes, carriage homes, active adult housing and several different varieties of estate homes. This project is one of the largest ever developed in the state of Delaware.
