services provided: conceptual design, construction documentation, permitting

Heritage Park Playground is a very small, but challenging park located in North Philadelphia near the North Philadelphia regional rail station. The park had not been updated in many years leading to it being underutilized by a community that is desperate for park space. The redesign of the park consisted of a new sprayground, new playgrounds, new adult fitness equipment, new stormwater infrastructure and complete accessibility via ramps. The streetscape was also addressed to make the park more inviting from the street.

*This project was designed, managed and completed while at a previous firm.
