Fowler Park Master Plan

Hayes | James assisted Forsyth County with development of a master plan for this proposed park located on land purchased from the Fowler family. The park portion of the property consists of approximately 80 acres of mixed pasture and woods. Hayes | James met with the Parks and Recreation Department to discuss their needs in this area of the county. Subsequently, Hayes | James began the planning process by conducting a meeting with an appointed steering committee of local citizens and county officials. Utilizing the community input and the county’s requests, a master plan was developed that reflected their needs and concerns. The proposed plan includes three soccer fields, three ball fields, a recreation center and future aquatic center, a tennis complex, open areas, and associated parking.

  

Grayson Park

This program called for a community park to serve all age groups, with an emphasis on senior citizens and children. Walking trails consisting of 1,700 linear feet undulate among existing trees and around proposed park elements. Playgrounds, pavilions, rose gardens and areas for senior activities were included as part of the design. The park is adjacent to the existing Town Hall and Senior Center and the plan needed to utilize those facilities as part of the design. Phasing was important because of this small towns’ limited funds.
