Georgia Veteran’s Memorial
Rockdale County, Georgia
This unique project began as an in-house design competition that took place in 1996. Once the winning concept was selected, the project was taken from Conceptual Design to Master Planning and to multiple Construction Documentation Phases. The basic approach of the project is to relate the natural environment that the site offers to the program elements desired for the memorial. The memorial combines architectural and landscape elements to form a pedestrian park on the northwest bank of Black Shoals Lake. The project consists of approximately 25,000 square feet of disabled person’s accessible walkways and plazas, over 600 linear feet of seat walls and retaining walls, parking, sculptures, water features, lighting and site furnishings.
