Completion date: 2007
Construction cost: $3.7M
Erdman Anthony provided the construction observation and documentation services for the Borough of Chambersburg's Chambers Fort Park project. The project enhanced the historic Chambers Fort location for the community. A memorial statue of the founding family and three flagpoles were placed as the centerpiece of the new construction, which included parking improvements, pedestrian bridges over Falling Spring Creek and Conococheague Creek, architectural details that included brick pavers and replica historic lighting, and landscaping. We completed project documentation in accordance with standard PENNDOT practices and policies as required to meet stipulations of the borough's funding stream.
