Soon after site work began, the Hawkshaw Eastside developers found that the soil foundation was softer than expected and would require additional support. The increased costs made the initial plan economically unfeasible, so the group approached [[Moulton Properties]], who owned two additional acres north of the original property, with a joint proposition.

The resulting plan, named Hakwshaw Village, will stretch across combined four acres owned by both groups. The amount of commercial space in the new venture quadrupled to 110,000 sq. ft., but the number of residential units was scaled back from 94 to 30, due to a depressed housing market. However, all 30 units will be priced affordably, up from 24 in the Hawkshaw Eastside proposal.<ref name="details">"For altered Hawkshaw Village plans, the details could be deal-killers."
