Washington Park Renovation

Turner, with Megen Construction, provided construction management services for the renovation and expansion of Washington Park, a premier, historic, urban green space in Cincinnati’s Over-the-Rhine (OTR) neighborhood. Located between 12th and 14th & Race and Elm streets, across the street from Music Hall, Washington Park is Cincinnati’s second oldest public park. The park was renovated and expanded from six to eight acres and includes a two-level, 450-space underground parking garage. The garage replaces an environmentally challenged surface lot and has a green roof, increasing the green space in the park. The redesign of Washington Park includes about an acre of land dedicated to a state-of-the-art, interactive water feature and children’s play area. The redesign also includes retaining historic features, such as the bandstand, while adding performance stages and additional green space including a 37,000 sq. ft. civic lawn about the size of a football field.
