Hantz Field

The new artificial turf field designed by QPK Architects is to be completed in two phases, beginning with the field lights, fencing, and the best in class artificial turf field. The turf field measures 285' x 400'. The second phase includes a grandstand/press box with tiered bleachers to accomodate seating for 500 spectators, as well as landscaping, sidewalks, and upgrades to the West Walker Parking lot.

Status:

This project began with development of storm water calculations, grading and site utility plans, and the arrangement of geotechnical exploration relative to general soil rock bed, ground water conditions, and foundation design. Drilling for the field lighting and scoreboard foundations began in winter and re-commenced this spring allowing for the lights to be set up in early April. Field sub-grade remediation plans and logistics are moving forward. Parking lot poles will be reviewed and approved. The stonewall demolition and reconstruction will be coordinated with the Village of Potsdam Bike and Pedestrian Lane project.
