DESCRIPTION OF MATERIALS for
NEW UNIVERSAL ACCESSIBLE PLAYGROUND
MacArthur Park
503 East 9th Street
Little Rock, Arkansas
Dear Brian:
1. No site lighting is intended for this project since play is expected during the daylight
hours.
2. Fencing at the playground will consist of a pre-fabricated metal fence approximately 4
feet tall and 150 feet long. The fence will have the same look as the 4 foot tall fencing at
the existing playground and will be used to separate the playground from the east
parking lot. See the attached drawing and photo.
3. The standard light grey concrete walks are approximately 6 feet wide on the west side on
the playground and 8 feet wide on the north and east sides of the playground. No work
is expected at the nearby existing asphalt parking lots.
4. Landscaping and site accessories will consist of boulders approximately 2 to 3 feet in size
to help in grade transitions around the walks, small trees and shrubs and contemporary
seating benches. See the attached images.
5. Signage will be in the immediate area of the playground, approximately 2 by 3 feet in
size on 5 feet tall posts. Signage will consist of dedication signage and a rules of play
signage on plastic boards. See the attached images.
We appreciate this opportunity to work with the HDC and look forward to developing a very
useful project for the community.
Sincerely,
Ron Ross, Parks Planner
