Centennial Park Master Plan Implementation Project

Connico provided cost estimating services for the phase 1 implementation of the Centennial Park master plan. Centennial Park holds a special place in the history of Nashville and in the hearts of its citizens. The park was first created to hold the Centennial Exposition of 1897, a six-month event that brought nearly two million visitors to Nashville at a time when the city’s population was barely 100,000. It was the start of not only Nashville’s municipal park system but public park systems across the state. This project included water features and water strategy, park circulation and parking, landscape and planning, monuments and buildings, and programming and amenities.

Connico provided cost estimating services for the phase 2 redevelopment of the Great Lawn portion of the project as well. This portion of the project included demolition, earthwork, paving, landscaping, and site improvements.

Connico provided cost estimating services for the phase 2C\2D\2E that included north‐east parking, south‐east parking, Lake Watauga, bandshell landscaping and pavilion sitework, restrooms, storage building, and pavilion building.

Connico also provided cost estimating services for the Children’s Playground and Garden Memorial phase 2 that included the phased redevelopment of Centennial Park South‐West of the Great Lawn with demolition, earthwork, paving, landscaping, and site improvements. Connico is also involved in the phase 3 portion of this project, which is currently taking place.
