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 inclusive playground equipment and site improvements at the New Buffalo location in Indiana. The design specifies GameTime equipment as the basis bid, with approved equals permitted for manufacturers who submit drawings and renderings for review by July 29, 2026. The play equipment schedule includes a welcome sign, sensory cove climber, communication board, mini inclusive whirl, multiple swing configurations (ADA Powerscape, Primetime add-a-bays, belt seats, expression tandem seat, and zero-G chair), and a custom ramped unit designed for children ages 2-5 and 5-12 years old. The construction documents comprise seven plan sheets covering site plans, existing conditions and removals, layout, grading, landscape design, and detailed construction specifications for concrete paving, rubber safety surfacing, ornamental fencing, benches, and wall repairs.
The design documents include detailed technical specifications with site grading information, plant spacing diagrams, and construction details at various scales. Landscape architect Tiffany Smith of MCSA Group, Inc. leads the design team, supported by geotechnical engineering from Soils & Structures and surveying services from T Bronson & Associates. The project incorporates sustainable erosion and sediment control measures and includes provisions for existing tree preservation and new tree plantings of various oak species. Sinclair Recreation is the equipment supplier contact (800-444-4954), and the design accommodates both standard playground users and children with varying abilities through accessible play features and ADA-compliant pathways and equipment.
