How a vision for Herriman's last foothills became Utah's most distinctive master-planned community.
The land that would become Panorama sat along Herriman's western foothills for generations — open range with unobstructed views of the Wasatch Mountains and Salt Lake Valley below. As the city grew, this land remained untouched, waiting for a vision worthy of its setting.
When Development Associates Inc (DAI) acquired the property, they faced a choice: maximize density and profit, or create something that would honor the land's natural beauty. They chose the latter.
The result is Panorama — a community designed around the view.
DAI secures 420 acres in Herriman's foothills, envisioning a master-planned community that would become the city's last hillside development.
Working with world-class planners, the team designs a community that positions every home to capture the panoramic views — giving the development its name.
Ground breaks on Panorama Park, the trail system, and initial infrastructure. The signature three-level playground takes shape on the hillside.
Six of Utah's premier builders — Tri Pointe, Toll Brothers, Pulte, DAI, J-Craft, and Elevation — are selected to bring the vision to life.
Village One and Two welcome their first families. Panorama Park opens to the community, instantly becoming a destination playground.
All five villages are actively developing. Model homes are open. Hundreds of families call Panorama home — with 1,082 homesites in the full vision.
Development Associates Inc (DAI) has been creating distinctive Utah communities for over three decades. With a portfolio that includes some of the state's most sought-after master-planned developments, DAI brings experience, vision, and a commitment to quality that shows in every detail.
What sets DAI apart is their long-term approach. Rather than build and move on, they remain invested in their communities for years — ensuring that the vision they promise is the reality they deliver.
Panorama represents the culmination of DAI's community-building expertise — their most ambitious project yet.
Every road, every lot, every home is positioned with intention — to maximize views and minimize impact on the natural landscape.
Trails, parks, and gathering spaces are woven throughout — because community happens when neighbors have places to meet.
From architectural guidelines to builder selection, every decision is made with an eye toward lasting quality and design excellence.
