LINCOLN'S NEW SALEM STATE HISTORIC SITE
Menard County IL | Construct Day Use Area | 15 acres
We provided design and construction administration services to the State of Illinois for the creation of this totally accessible recreational area on previously vacant land fronting the Sangamon River. We developed a site design which minimized regrading and allowed for the existing natural vegetation and drainage to the river to remain. New facilities were located to prevent tree removal. Site amenities include shelter buildings, toilet buildings, playground area, cookout facilities, pedestrian trails, lighting, electric/water service, and parking.
