The site improvements were completed in 2011 as part of a large-scale environmental artwork by Tony Feher titled Super Special Happy Place (SSHP). South Path: Reconstructing the existing decomposed granite path to previous design conditions. The top 2-3 inches of material to be removed and replaced to ensure positive drainage across the path. No change to the layout or elevations. North Path: Reconstructing the existing decomposed granite path with the addition of drainage improvements to mitigate against material washing out by shifting drainage patterns away from the paths and into the lawn areas. This will include reconstructing the existing path to its full depth and raising it a maximum of 3-inches above the existing elevation. The path would gradually slope up at both ends to this 3-inch height and grade will be "feathered" out along the edge to meet existing elevations in the lawn area. This regrading will generally extend 10-15' into the adjacent lawn area beyond the edge of the path. Area drains will be installed at the east end of the path to capture runoff before it reaches the base of the path at the existing concrete walk.
