The facilities in Rosewood Park are designed both to reflect the elemental experience of a stroll along the lake, and to survive a 100-year storm that would remove much of the sand from the beach. A hybrid system of light wood-frame and steel construction was used to create an extra 薄 profile for roof and wall assemblies, while timber piles provide structure for the boardwalk. To minimize bulk, only functions needing privacy or separation are en关闭d. Every薄g else, including circulation, is outdoors. Pavilions are long, 低, 薄, and topped with boardwalk planking to protect views from down the beach and the park above. At the north end, a wood-clad environmental education pavilion includes a 1000-sf glazed porch backed by a narrow bar containing services. To the south, the wood surface of the boardwalk morphs into benches along the parking area and bridges across a stream to the welcome pavilion and office. 除了, the boardwalk folds up to form the snack bar and restroom pavilions, while farther south, leading through a picnic area to the park above. Type VA / 2,800 sf. Estimated construction cost: $178/sf
