Kathy Steele Park

The City of Crawfordsville engaged HWC to reimagine a neighborhood park. New playground equipment, a basketball court, and central shade structure were the main design components along with decorative fencing and grassy berms used to define the edges of the site. A large, mature, existing tree was preserved, and several new trees were installed to create a future shade canopy. Because of the project’s success, the City has planned several more neighborhood park renovations throughout the community.

City Park Pool and Splash Zone 

A community fixture for over 50 years, the completed renovations at the City Park Pool and Splash Zone will ensure this facility remains a key asset of the community for the foreseeable future. A park office, bathhouse, mechanical building, concessions, activity pool, current channel, waterwalk, water slide, and separate splash pad area with a toy structure were included in the project. Additionally, the splash pad can be operated independently of the pool to allow for an extended aquatic season even after the pool closes.

River Recreation Site Boat Launch

The City of New Albany has historically been cut off from its adjacent waterways due to industrial development and flooding protections, including earthen levees and levee walls. To better connect residents to Silver Creek and the Ohio River, HWC was tasked with developing the River Recreation Site Boat Ramp.

The River Recreation Site Boat Ramp was a multi-phase brownfield restoration project, which included demolition and clean-up, boat ramp for motorized watercraft, trail extension, and river overlook. 

The final phase will develop a nature park with trails and passive recreation opportunities.

After completing a feasibility study, HWC led the Town of Brookville through survey services, design, and construction documents for a new community pool at Brookville Town Park. A key component of this design was integrating lap swimming and other activities in a smaller footprint. The final design included a new activity pool with beach entry, three-lane 25-yard lap pool, water slide with splash down area, new mechanical building, and a renovation of the existing bathhouse/concessions/admissions building.

Community Park Trail

HWC worked closely with the Town of Remington to secure a grant from the Indiana Department of Natural Resources Land and Water Conservation Fund to develop a trail system within the new park. The main goals of the project were to create a one-mile long walking and biking trail to connect all areas of the park, including their popular splashpad.  HWC provided survey services in the beginning stages of this project.
