About this file
This is a construction design set for a playground replacement project at the New Buffalo Welcome Center prepared by MCSA Group, Inc. for the State of Michigan Department of Technology, Management & Budget, Parks and Recreation Division. The project involves the installation of new inclusive playground equipment from GameTime (basis bid through Sinclair Recreation) and landscape improvements at the New Buffalo Welcome Center site located in Indiana near Lake Michigan. The equipment schedule specifies six key components including a welcome sign, sensory cove climber, communication board, mini inclusive whirl, swing system with multiple seat options accommodating ADA requirements, and a custom ramped unit for ages 2-5 and 5-12 years. The design documents include site plans, existing conditions and removals plans, layout plans, grading plans with erosion and sediment control, landscape plans with detailed specifications for tree and shrub installations, and construction details for concrete paving, safety surfacing, benches, gates, fencing, and wall repairs. Approved equal manufacturers may submit alternative drawings and renderings for review by July 29, 2026.
The construction set provides comprehensive technical specifications and design details necessary for bidding and construction, including grading elevations, plant spacing diagrams, concrete joint details, poured-in-place rubber safety surfacing specifications, and ornamental site furnishings. The landscape architect is Tiffany Smith, RLA with MCSA Group, Inc., and the project involves coordination with geotechnical consultants (Soils & Structures) and surveying firms (T Bronson & Assoc.). The design emphasizes ADA accessibility and inclusive play features throughout the facility, incorporating multiple seating and play options to accommodate children of varying abilities and ages.
