5 A Queens Park Opens, Already a Storm Survivor By DAVID W. DUNLAP Published: September 4, 2013 The Hunters Point South Waterfront Park in Queens opened on Aug. 28. It had already survived Hurricane Sandy. Construction of the 5.5-acre park was well along last October when the storm hit. Surging waters immersed much of the playing surface of synthetic turf. Winds hit a full-scale steel mock-up of the park pavilion. Waves washed over the wood-plank esplanade, where new honey which designed the park in collaboration with Thomas Balsley Associates, a landscape architectural practice, and Arup, an The park passed the test. Water emptied from the green. The pavilion mock-up stood, as did the trees. The planking came manufactured by Kebony, a Norwegian company. The quick turnaround could be credited in part to some common-sense principles embedded in the design: -Build higher than you think the water could possibly come. -Make it tough, but not impossible, for surging water to get in.

That is why one of its most important features can be found at its edge. Running through the plantings along the eastern six inches into the ground, but are partly visible among the grasses. Water will never be trapped in there like a pond, Thomas Balsley, the landscape architect, said. berm. Hard-charging games can be played on the synthetic grass, while parkgoers looking for a comfortable vantage can settle down on the real thing. The compromise was an artful one, said Mr. Benepe, who is now a senior vice president of the Trust for Public Land. It looks good and hopefully will work well.
