MARKET STREET PARK
CITY OF MIDDLETON, WISCONSIN
This colorful gem is tucked along a city nature trail, only steps away from new housing developments and commercial spaces.
The client wanted to furnish the 3800 sq ft site with a swing and desired to keep much of the site work in-house. The GRG design team envisioned a plan that harmonized natural play with conventional elements. The result was a collaborative construction project, in which the City of Middleton provided site work and much of the safety surfacing.
In the summer of 2021, award-winning landscape design firm, Parkitecture + Planning, invited GRG to design a natural playscape along the Pheasant Branch Creek fork trail in Middleton, WI.
The GRG team, in turn, built a sprawling log and boulder fortress, featuring a spacious deck bridge, ADA tunnel path, and a blend of ropes, rings, swings and slides across varied elevation and colorful safety surfacing.
