This 9,500-square-foot park building houses park equipment rentals, event space, restrooms, lockers, a dual-sided fireplace, and a full-service restaurant and beer garden which is open to the public. T

Architect: SmithGroup
Design: SmithGroup
Construction: The Lathrop Co.

The building design was inspired by a forest tree canopy, translating into a signature roofline and dynamic wood ceiling. Not one of the glulam beams used to build the Market Hall ceiling structure is the same.

There are some common thicknesses, but all vary in length and angle. It made construction a bit more complex than using a standard repeated form, but it sure is a beautiful finished product. The use of bird-safe glass walls and large roll-up doors enhance indoor-outdoor relationships throughout the facility.

Guests will enjoy this amenity as an all-season hub for the park and a centerpiece of programming for residents and visitors alike.
