Athens Church Greenspace Project

The Athens Church Greenspace Project is a 3-acre site attached to a mixed-use development complex. This new private park is adjacent to the church. This project required the demolition of a parking lot and a portion of one of the outlining commercial structures that were no longer in use to construct the community park. The park will feature a plaza area and a small amphitheater to enhance social gatherings for the local congregation. This park will also feature a good number of bicycle parking spaces to encourage alternative commuting options for nearby residents. W&A provided a wide range of civil services for this project including due diligence design and permitting services. The overall master site plans that were furnished included grading plans, ES&PC Plan design, stormwater and drainage design, and utility design. Additionally, surveying services and landscape architecture services were also delivered. The W&A landscape architecture team provided a full landscape plan for the site that encompassed planting design, selection, and a planting schedule.
