PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Tom Lee Park’s redesign covers 30 acres of landscaping and various architectural elements, with a project budget of $60 million. The overall park design was heavily influenced by the Mississippi River’s flow patterns, creating opportunities and a sense of motion to smoothly navigate people’s movements throughout the park. The new park design is divided into 4 major zones: the Civic Gateway, the Active Core, the Community Batture, and the Habitat Terraces.

OUR ROLE
Serving as owner’s rep for the Partnership (Memphis River Parks Partnership), AWPM is responsible for managing the design and construction process, which includes monitoring and tracking the schedule, scope, and budget on behalf of the owner. AWPM hosts and organizes biweekly OAC meetings, attends committee meetings, and provides weekly project status updates to the Partnership.

Additional activities for the project managers included; design confirmation, utility coordination, construction site monitoring and inspection, stakeholder engagement, progress meeting facilitation, and document control.

Allworld coordinated a safe, temporary entry for all attendees, including those requiring ADA-compliant access. With a tight schedule, Allworld’s constant onsite monitoring leads to quick resolutions and timely delivery of the attraction.
