Scope of Work
ESS was in charge of roadwork and utilities surrounding the apartment complex. The project concluded with 5,700 square yards of concrete, 4,500 linear feet of concrete curb and gutter, 5,000 cubic yards of excavation and grading, over 4,300 linear feet of combined underground utility work and 3,800 square yards of asphalt. Sitting on a tight spot, detention basins were innovatively placed inside the medians allowing no sacrifices to be made to overall real estate to the complex. These basins total at 24,000 cubic feet and also support easier drainage and detention of water due to their unique location.
