Hartwood Acres Sculpture Garden breaks ground on multimillion-dollar site renovation

The $3.9 million construction project is being completed by Plavchak Construction Co., Inc. of Elizabeth. LaQuatra Bonci Associates led the design team. Work will feature ADA-accessible walkways that wind through the park’s lawns to link the pieces, along with LED lighting and native landscaping. Nearly 300 trees, more than 100 shrubs and thousands of perennials will be planted. Reconfigured driveways and parking areas will be designed with principles of green engineering and rain gardens that help absorb stormwater runoff. Portions of the existing asphalt roads will be widened and resurfaced. Work is expected to last through the end of the year. “By placing the bulk of these pieces of art at center stage, the public has more opportunity to engage with this art than ever before,” county Executive Rich Fitzgerald said.
