So happy to be a part of such an amazing team and an incredible project.
We're honored to be featured in Ada County's latest newsletter, highlighting our structural engineering work at The Park at Expo Idaho.
Our team’s scope included the Play Pavilion, Skate Pavilion, specialty play equipment foundations, a historic observation tower, and a variety of other site elements.
A few things you might not realize when you visit:
• The Play Pavilion stretches more than 140 feet and contains over 75,000 pounds of steel, with a roof designed to create a waterfall effect when it rains.
• The giant swing set is anchored by 131,000 pounds of concrete hidden underground.
• The sculptural Skate Pavilion contains another 750,000 pounds of concrete.
One of the best parts of this project was collaborating with a diverse team of landscape architects, architects, contractors, specialty designers, and manufacturers to develop solutions that could actually be built.
The park officially opens to the public next Friday, October 23, at 10:00 AM. We hope you'll join us in celebrating this exciting addition to our community!
Thank you to Ada County for the feature and to the entire project team, including Port, Marlon Blackwell Architects, and CM Company, Inc., for the collaboration!
