Overview

The Fields

The lowest terrace on the site hosts the softball field with a 30 foot retaining wall wrapping around the perimeter of the outfield. The field includes home and visitor dugouts, and a bullpen. A few steps above the softball fields sits the baseball field with a 30 foot retaining wall encasing the boundaries of right field. The baseball field also includes home and visitor dugouts and full caged bullpen.

Nestled between the baseball and softball fields is the concession / bathrooms facility. The CMU structure is approximately 2,200 SF and includes basic kitchen equipment to support concessions.

Up a level and back to the north of the baseball field sits six (6) tennis courts. The eastern side of the courts features a 20 foot retaining wall.

The final field, sitting on a similar plane to the tennis courts is the multi-use athletic practice field.

A massive amount of site work

Creating the four levels for the sports fields required the removal and addition of hundreds of thousands of tons of earth to balance, level, and raise the site. Some areas of the project demanded cuts 35 feet deep to find existing stable subgrade that could then be backfilled with controlled select fill. Some areas of the project required 40 feet of select fill, incrementally compacted in six inch lifts.
