Comprehensive Design for Centennial Beach Refurbishment

Weston & Sampson provided planning, design, permitting, and construction administration services for the refurbishment of Centennial Beach located at Fort Meadow Lake in Hudson, Massachusetts.

Most of the amenities at the popular beach had fallen into a state of disrepair due to heavy use and the impacts of higher intensity storms. Our designs included the construction of a new bathhouse, open air pavilion space, and restoration of the old bathhouse for storage. Site improvements also included the introduction of new stormwater management systems, landscape interventions to control erosion, a fully accessible system of pathways, beach restoration and enhancement efforts, and adjustments to the gate system and parking lot configuration to enhance year-round use and enjoyment. The improvements were intended to make the facility multi-generational and inclusive for all residents and visitors.
