Welch Riverfront Project Earns Honor Award
Triad Engineering and Project Manager Joe Young, ASLA were recognized by the West Virginia chapter of the American Society of Landscape Architects (WVASLA) and presented with their 2009 Honor Award for Outstanding Professional Achievement for the design and development of the new Welch Riverfront Park and streetscape. The award was presented to Mr. Young at the chapter's annual meeting at the 2010 WV Contractor's EXPO in Charleston. Triad's services on the project included the preparation of a master plan and construction documents, as well as construction administration.
Triad was selected by the City of Welch, WV to design a park and streetscape improvements for their downtown area, which lies in the floodplain adjacent to the Tug Fork River. The park design included extensive landscape improvements, lighting upgrades, concrete sidewalks with clay pavers, street furniture, parking areas and the creation of an ADA-compliant amphitheater with ramps and steps connecting the upper and lower levels. The park's development resulted in a greatly needed open space for the downtown area as well as a new location for community events and attractions.
