THE GALLOWAY
SCHOOL
Athletics Fields
Atlanta, Georgia
The Galloway School Athletic Fields
were developed on 8 acres located on DeFoors Ferry Road
approximately 10 miles from the main campus. The site is on a
landfill abandoned in the 1960s requiring extensive
environmental analysis, methane mitigation system, and a
ground consolidation method called Deep Dynamic Compaction.
The field and track were laser-graded to produce the high
level of quality control needed for the field and track
surface.
An excellent relationship with the neighboring
community was maintained during the design and construction
process through continual and open communication by all
members of the team.
The project included Bioretention/Rain Gardens as part
of the water filtering/detention system and a Concession and
Restroom facility. |
