WATERLOO PARK

As part of the Waterloo Greenway project, Forsite was contracted to install thermally modified decking. The Meredith Heritage Tree Deck is a 3,500 square foot, oval shaped deck surrounding two large heritage trees. A steel substructure spans the critical root zones of the protected trees limiting the disturbance. Care was taken during construction to limit foot traffic below the framing.
