Site work and renovation of a mixed-use development in Framingham, Massachusetts. Conceptual plans call for the renovation of a playground / park / athletic field; and for site work for a playground / park / athletic field.

This project is a design and engineering effort to identify a preferred plan of improvements and associated construction cost estimates for the Longs Complex. Potential improvements to be explored include ADA upgrades, synthetic playing fields, support buildings (storage, restrooms, concessions) that meet current code requirements, spectator seating, lighting, and accessible pathways connecting site amenities. The Longs Athletic Complex is located in an Environmental Justice Neighborhood, directly adjacent to Downtown Framingham and several additional Environmental Justice neighborhoods. The Longs Complex is a critical outdoor recreation facility serving a widely varied demographic, including boys and girls, youth through senior adult, and multiple local high schools and colleges. Amenities at Longs include six (6) ballfields, two (2) full-sized rectangular fields, two (2) basketball courts, batting cages, restrooms, concessions buildings, and equipment storage buildings. With the majority of the amenities constructed in the 80s through early 9s, ADA compliant infrastructure is extremely limited As of October 28, 2024, This project is included in the city's 2025-2034 Capital Improvement Program (CIP) *Project information has been obtained through a public capital improvement plan (CIP).
