SITE SELECTION AND DESIGN CONSULTING – In 2013, the City of Calgary retained the team of New Line Skateparks and van der Zalm + associates to oversee the first phase of implementation of the City of Calgary Skateparks Amenities Strategy SAS (also developed by New Line / van der zalm). Specifically, this entailed the site selection and design of 8 diverse custom concrete skatepark facilities spread throughout the city. This is one of the most ambitious municipal skatepark development exercises in North America – with 5 out of 8 projects now delivered. 3 additional parks are slated to be released for construction prior to 2019. Thank you to everyone who made this landmark initiative possible. Select completed Shots of Southwood, New Brighton, and Huntington Hills are shown below
