Hard copies of the as-builts were given to us by the PARCS department. I called the civil engineer Keith Campbell with AECOM whose stamp were on the drawings. He was gracious enough to send the CAD files.

I’ve been meaning to contact Karana Hattersley-Drayton historic preservation manager with the Planning Department. If anyone knows the history of the site, she would. The site was definately housing like the neighborhood to the north before the 180 freeway was built. Probably small commercial along Belmont. 180 definitely redefined the neighborhood.

I will take you up on your offer of help.

Questions;
How were you able to attain as-builts for this job?
Where can I find history/information on the this parcel being given/purchased/designated for use as a park?
If you need a draftsman let me know, I’d be glad to work on plans for you guys.

I always thought underpasses were wasted space and good for many uses. I’m glad to see this. There are other areas similar to this that would be awesome for skate parks, or even little business districts. Those Box Car Diners come to mind…
